Mary was amazing! She educated me and gave me so much support.

Working with Suzanne has been a great experience. She is very knowledgeable, gives great solutions to problems and always answers questions even outside of appointments. I had a difficult start to my nursing journey but she helped me improve and solidify my nursing relationship with my little one and I’m very thankful for all of her help!

I have seen Nicole K. twice and during both appointments, she was extremely patient, did weighted feeds, provided tips, and made breastfeeding much easier for me and my little one. She was very thorough and went through my pump/flange size with me as well. She was happy to answer all my questions and did not make me feel rushed at all. I would highly recommend her!

Dana is AMAZING! Super knowledgeable and helpful and personable. Eased my mind with breastfeeding and with my babies weight gain. Will recommend her to anyone that needs help. Thank you for making this Mommas heart feel better!

Suzanne was great! Very knowledgeable, reassuring and took the time to listen to my struggles through my daughter’s tongue and lip ties.
Also Tiffany is the sweetest person! I wouldn’t have been able to schedule or get into an appointment without her. She is such a caring soul! She listened to my fears, reassured me with her knowledge and referred me to Suzanne.
Such a compassionate place! So grateful my daughter was able to be seen and ready to try some of the recommendations.
Thank you!

It’s always worth it. Ariel was very kind to me early on in the online triage. Kathy has come in person twice and she is amazing. She is always extra helpful sharing her vast experience. They’re very professional.

If you're even thinking about booking with Ariel Brewer at Bayou City Breastfeeding, do it. Immediately.

I say this with absolute certainty: our breastfeeding journey would not have been successful without Ariel. The cards were stacked against us from day one — latching issues, lip tie, tongue tie, inverted nipples, and an extremely low milk supply. Honestly, it felt like everything that could go wrong did. There was no logical reason we should’ve made it to where we are today… but we did. And it’s entirely because Ariel guided us through each challenge — one at a time, with so much knowledge, compassion, and the kind of calm confidence that made me believe we could do this.

First, we tackled milk supply while navigating some tricky anatomy issues between me and my baby. Ariel gave me clear, step-by-step guidance that helped me build supply and get my baby back to birthweight. And wow — we crushed it. I went from being a significant under-supplier to a slight over-supplier. And seemingly overnight, my baby caught up and began thriving.

Then came the tongue and lip ties. Right after getting them revised, my baby latched without a shield, without leaking, and — miracle of miracles — without pain. Thriving didn’t even begin to describe it.

And just when I thought we were out of the woods, my supply suddenly dropped out of nowhere. But again, Ariel had my back. With her concise instructions (plus a few optional hacks), I was able to regain every ounce of lost supply within a couple of weeks.

Today, we’re nearly 8 months into our journey. My baby is happy, deeply connected to me, and rocking the 98th percentile. Big. Beautiful. Thriving.

Saying Ariel gave us a priceless gift feels like an understatement. Her support didn’t just help me breastfeed — it gave me confidence, reassurance, and resilience I didn’t know I had. Her belief in me, her encouraging nudges, and even her occasional bits of mom-wisdom were exactly what I needed, exactly when I needed them.

Ariel is an exceptional lactation consultant — and an even more extraordinary human. She goes far above and beyond the job description, and I’ll be forever grateful for her.

Ariel was very helpful, patient, and informative! She also gave great recommendations and resources. The session gave me so much hope when I thought there wasn't any hope. I would definitely recommend Bayou City Breastfeeding to other families.

Kathy has been such a great resource for us a first time parents and learning the ins and outs of breastfeeding. She handles our sweet baby girl with such care, and we look forward to our appointments with her.

Came in prenatal - I feel so much more confident! Thanks to Ariel! I am so thankful for BCBLC. I already scheduled a 1 week postpartum follow up at the house. Thanks for everything
