I had a great experience at Bayou City Breastfeeding at the Jones Rd office. I saw IBCLC Dana. She was absolutely wonderful! She was easy to talk to, nonjudgmental, and and answered all my questions with advice and reasons to back up the advice. I felt heard, seen, and validated, and the appointment did not feel rushed at all. At first I wanted an in-home visit but they didn’t have any available but were able to get me in the office—it was probably good for me to get out of the house honestly! I absolutely recommend ANY nursing mom to see an IBCLC here, even if it’s just for reassurance! 1000% worth it.
I've had a wonderful experience at Bayou City Breastfeeding!! Rebecca was outstanding in helping me navigate the complexities of my BlueCross BlueShield insurance. She made what could have been a daunting process remarkably smooth and stress-free through her exceptional communication skills. She promptly responded to my inquiries, providing timely updates and guidance as needed. Thanks to Rebecca's assistance, I was able to access the lactation support I needed without the added stress of navigating insurance complexities.
We took the childbirth prep class last week and were so glad we did! As first time parents, we have definitely been overwhelmed with all the information floating around out there. This class gave us a good high level overview of what to expect leading up to labor, during labor and those first few weeks after birth. Jen was so great at breaking things down for us and answering any specific questions we had! Would highly recommend!
I met with Claire after having issues with aggressive letdown and oversupply that was causing painful feedings for baby and I. She helped with the letdown and supply, while also teaching me more comfortable positions and aids to help with better feedings all around. I’m incredibly thankful to have found Claire and Bayou City Breastfeeding and will continue our feeding journey with them happily!
Ariel was wonderful. As a second time breastfeeding journey she was very focused on what MY GOALS were for this time around and I never felt pressured into any certain direction. The prenatal visit was so important for reeducation and everyone should do it! Having her come for a home visit was a GAME CHANGER and the in office visits were great to see and learn how my baby was growing. Also gave me peace of mind on when and how much to bottle supplement as well as giving great resources for ENT and Body work. I did not use BCBF in my first postpartum and had to learn a lot of things the hard way or gave up because I didn’t know what to do. I am so happy I found them and I’ll recommend them to anyone!!
