I’ve reviewed bayou city breastfeeding before with my first born and it was fantastic. I’m here to write a second review since we used them again for my second baby. I thought everything was going well until week 8 when we started to see bottle refusal and over just general fussiness and not sleeping longer than an hour. We saw Ariel for what we thought was bottle refusal. Ariel listened to a bunch of information we threw at her, patiently let us show her what was happening, and had it figured out in minutes. She identified a tongue tie that another LC and a pediatrician had both missed, referred us to a wonderful dentist and within two weeks, our baby was back and feeding better than before. It’s also important to note Ariel did not push to have the tie released or pressure us into anything. She simply told us what she saw and referred us to several great specialists. We cannot thank Ariel enough for being so incredible at her job. We feel so lucky to have found Bayou City Breastfeeding. Thank you Ariel and team!!
Response from the owner: Hi Ally,Thank you so much for your glowing review and for sharing your positive experience with us. We are humbled that you have entrusted us with the care of both your babies. 😊It is wonderful to hear that Ariel Brewer was able to catch the tongue tie that other medical practitioners missed. We understand how frightening it can be when your baby is refusing a bottle and not eating well. Ensuring our families feel supported and informed to make their own care decisions is critical to us. We are thrilled that you felt this way.Thank you for being a part of the Bayou City Breastfeeding family!Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are here for you! 😊Warm regards,Bayou City Breastfeeding
I came here to try to induce lactation after we adopted our son. Mandy helped me get a supply going, and also answered my myriad questions about caring for our first baby. We also did bodywork here to address his tension and help with painful latching. Highly recommend coming here for any breastfeeding needs!

We are always here for you!Warmly, Bayou City Breastfeeding
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!
I found Bayou City Breastfeeding about three years ago. Suzanne helped me with my daughter to ensure my desires of breastfeeding my baby were met. She not only showed me techniques to help with her latch, she also recommended certain things I had no idea about that would help my BF journey. I’m so thankful for her help I was able to BF my daughter for 15 months before she (daughter) decided she was ready to be done. I am now back at BCBF with my new baby who has had latching issues and again Suzanne is there to help me with all her knowledge and amazingness! I definitely recommend Bayou City BF!
Response from the owner: Thank you for the kind review! We are so happy to be a part of your breastfeeding journey!

Time spent with Mary was time well spent. She helped ease my anxieties and gave good guidance to get my baby and I on the right track for breastfeeding success. Scheduling with her was always easy, the office staff was most helpful. I highly recommend!

We are grateful that Suzanne was able to make a home visit to evaluate my son's lip/tongue tie in the middle of a pandemic. She came highly recommended by our baby doula and our son's dentist's office. First of all, Suzanne understood our worries about COVID-19 and did everything she could to put our minds at ease and to keep us and our baby safe by being transparent about their cleaning protocols and by following very strict home visit protocols (reporting temperatures, masks on, gloves on, social distancing, hand washing, and diligently disinfecting equipments, etc). I would not have put my trust on anyone else to come in to our home at this time. During the visit, she was very thorough in taking my son's history, from birth up until now, and doing a complete physical evaluation from head to toe. Given her background and experience, she was able to identify additional issues quickly and make recommendations in order to avoid invasive procedures in the future. When the issue was not within her scope of practice, she immediately identified pertinent help for us to mitigate the issue. She followed up with us via email and text to make sure our questions were answered. She was extremely efficient, straightforward, and thoughtful, which is exactly the qualities we looked for in healthcare provider. We very much have enjoyed our visit with Suzanne and so did my 13-week old son!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this amazing review. We are so grateful for your kind words. We am so glad that our COVID-19 safety procedures made you feel safe enough to welcome us into you home. And we are also happy to hear that we were able to provide you with referrals to address the issues that were identified in your visit.
