Breastfeeding Blog

We love Suzanne..we have been thru 2 kids, 2 revision procedures and 2 totally different breastfeeding experiences.. one with just enough (sometimes not enough) and with an oversupply.. if i had to do it again i would choose her again and again to help with my breastfeeding journeys!!!

I've never been to a lactation consult before so I didn't know what to expect. I had a great experience with Melissa! She was really friendly and informative. Very easy to get along with. Breastfeeding and pumping when at work has been difficult but after meeting with Melissa, I feel better about my journey. Looking forward to our follow up appointment.

My wife and I have had 2 babies both with tongue ties and lip ties. So much pain with breastfeeding, so much difficulty with getting a good latch, so much...

Melissa is a godsend!! 💗 She is so knowledgeable, encouraging, and helpful. I felt so much more confident with our newborn after meeting with her. Can’t wait for our next follow up.

I cannot speak enough praise for Bayou City, specifically Claire J and Brandy (who we met a few times!). Claire is my go to gal for all things breastfeeding for mom and baby. I’m a nicu nurse and have completed coursework myself to become a CLC, and I know MANY LCs, but none compare to Claire. She is so dedicated and is a vast wealth of knowledge. We live in Dallas and were connected to Claire through a mutual friend after a complicated tie release when my daughter was almost completely aversive to the breast and would not take a bottle. I was very close to requesting a feeding tube from my pediatrician. Claire met with me virtually multiple times, even on the day after Christmas, and she was able to help my daughter be receptive to feeding consistently in a matter of 48 hours. In the months to come, we visited Claire at bayou city for week long intensives, where she worked us in to her schedule around our other appointments in Katy and even brought in other LCs like Brandy to consult on post release healing. She is skilled at navigating ties (pre and post release) and breastfeeding, supply issues, maternal health complications, and the emotional dynamics of everything. She has a wealth of resources at her fingertips and knows how to use them. Kind and gentle, realistic, and affirming of maternal dyad goals, Claire is the person y’all need for success in your breastfeeding journey.

Kathy is absolutely wonderful. Very patient and very informative. My daughter has made so much improvement since coming to Bayou City Breastfeeding.

I’ve been working with Suzanne to get my baby back to the breast after being born prematurely. Highly recommend for evidence based lactation assistance!

I love my consultant Katelyn. She is super professional and gave me great suggestions.

Second kiddo and a whole new set of obstacles on our journey, Bayou City Breastfeeding has been there with us every step of the way. They have helped us with SNS feeding, pumping, formula feeding, low supply, tongue and lip ties, body work, pediatric chiropractic referrals, everything under the sun that has been thrown at us. We never would have been able to come as far as we have without the support we've received from this team.

Tessa is an AMAZING consultant. I literally ask her about everything! I rely on her more than I rely on my son's doctor. When I ask the pediatrician a question, I usually get "He's fine", but with Tessa I get explanations and details that help me better understand certain things. Dr. Emily is heaven sent as she helped to loosen my baby. The exercises have been working very well with him and he so flexible now and sleeps so much better. Her patience with babies is wonderful!!
