Kathy Lenert was absolutely wonderful! It was obvious that she has a ton of knowledge and experience. She was kind and really made me feel like she cared about me and baby. Would recommend her to anyone!

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!!
Response from the owner:Hello Lee!

Thank you so much for your glowing review! It is so wonderful to hear that Tessa and Bayou City Breastfeeding far exceeded your expectations.
It is our mission to pass on our knowledge on to our clients, so they have all the tools they need to take care of their babies. Remember, all of your questions are important and deserve detailed answers. No one knows your baby better than you do!

So thankful for Suzanne! I wish every mom would have access to someone like her. She has help make a huge difference in my breastfeeding journey and I don’t fear any obstacles or changes that may arise as my little one grows because I know I have Suzanne to guide me. Suzanne is passionate about what she does and she not only cares about your breastfeeding success but she cares about you and your well-being as a postpartum mom.

Karen is AMAZING. Seriously, she has been so incredibly helpful in educating me on breastfeeding as a first time mom! Call them if you need someone to do in home visit with you or an office to go to. I did both and it was great. Highly recommend!
I cannot express how much I’ve enjoyed my experience here! I’ve worked with both Karen and Mandy, and they have both helped me as a new mom. I’m not sure I wouldn’t gotten through the first few months without them! 10/10 recommend.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Avery! We’re thrilled to hear that your experience with Bayou City Breastfeeding has been so positive. Karen and Mandy will be delighted to know how much their support meant to you during those early months. Helping new moms feel confident and supported is exactly why we do what we do! We truly appreciate your recommendation and are honored to be part of your journey. 💜
If not for BCB, I would have had a very different breastfeeding outcome. Breastfeeding was painful, verging on unbearable, before discovering and reversing my daughter’s oral ties. Because of the ongoing care and attention from Suzanne and other providers at BCB, our breastfeeding journey is still going strong at 14 months. I know we would not be in the same place today if BCB had not taken my goals to heart and made such a Herculean effort to see us be successful. Forever grateful for Suzanne and her team!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
Britni is AMAZING! She was so personable and professional. She answered all of my questions and gave me a realistic plan moving forward that I’m excited to try. Can’t say enough good things about her and this experience!!
Response from the owner:Hi Staci,

Without the guidance of Suzanne and her expertise, I dont think breastfeeding would have lasted long for us at all. She always knows exactly what is needed to get us headed on the best track for success. All the other lactation consultants we have seen here have been pretty great also as well as the chiropractor Dr. Chelsea! I highly recommend taking advantage of their services if you are expecting or have a little one!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words, Christine! We're thrilled to hear that Suzanne and our team could provide the support you needed on your breastfeeding journey. It's always our goal to set families up for success. Your recommendation means the world to us! 💛
We are so happy to have you in the Bayou City Breastfeeding family!

Can’t recommend enough!
