Dr Chelsea is sweet as can be and has done great work with my tense little baby!
I am almost 5 months PP, and I would not still be breastfeeding if not for Bayou City Breastfeeding and my lactation consultant, Tiphany. I highly recommend this practice. Breastfeeding may be natural, but it does not come easy. Tiphany helped me ensure my baby got a good latch from the very beginning which helped ease the pain that necessarily comes with learning to breastfeed. Even after we had a good latch established, she has helped with other issues that have arisen, which has helped me continue breastfeeding when I may otherwise have stopped. She has also been a really helpful source for selecting bottles, pacifiers, and toys for good oral motor development that do not interfere with my baby’s breastfeeding skills. I feel confident that I can breastfeed beyond my original goal of 6 months because of the skills I’ve learned. Highly highly recommend this practice for anyone who wants to breastfeed.
I cannot recommend Brittaney Davidson highly enough! After a very difficult and emotionally draining breastfeeding experience with my first child, I was nervous and uncertain about trying again with my second. From the very first consultation, she immediately put me at ease with her warmth and genuine empathy. She helped put me at ease and has become an invaluable resource for me. Her knowledge of breastfeeding techniques and lactation challenges that can occur is remarkable. She took the time to thoroughly assess my baby’s latch and my milk supply explaining every step in a way that made me feel empowered and not at all overwhelmed. What sets her apart is her passion! She is truly invested in the success of every family she works with. She celebrates the small wins, provides encouragement along the way and most importantly she gives practical, evidence-based guidance that actually works. Thanks to Brittaneys support, I have made it to one month of exclusively breastfeeding my second child…….successfully and confidently! This is a milestone I never thought possible after my first experience. Beyond her expertise, her compassion makes her not just a lactation nurse, but a trusted partner in this roller coaster journey of motherhood. Any parent lucky enough to work with her will feel supported and truly cared for. Thank you for all you do Brittaney!!
Kathelyn is amazing. She is explained pretty well and helped me to understand the lactation process in a smooth way.
This company is absolutely wonderful!! I worked with 3 different IBCLCs (depending on which location was most convenient and my crazy schedule - they were extremely accommodating), and they were all phenomenal!! Brandy is experienced and helped me get through a lot of challenges during my breastfeeding journey. The owner, Suzanne, is knowledgeable and cares a great deal about each mother/baby pair that walks through that door. I cannot recommend them enough!!
