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!
Response from the owner:Hi Lauren,
We greatly appreciate your recommendation!!!! 😊

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and kind words with us. Your words will surely help others experiencing a similar situation with letdown and oversupply.

We are so happy that Claire was able to provide you the encouragement and help necessary to continue your breastfeeding journey.

I can’t rave enough about Suzanne and her staff. I was clueless as a first time mom regarding all things breastfeeding.. she answered all my questions and more. Supportive, informative, and caring all around!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind review! We have been so happy to be a part of your journey into motherhood ❤️
Dr. Chelsea is very kind, a good listener and good at chiropractice.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Brandy, for your kind words and 5‑star review! 🌟 We’re thrilled to hear that you felt supported by Dr. Chelsea’s care. Her compassion, attentive listening, and chiropractic expertise are at the heart of what we strive to provide every day at Bayou City Breastfeeding. We’re grateful you chose us to be part of your journey! 💕
So extremely happy with the care, bedside manners, and patience with Karen Swan! I was hesitant when I first went because breastfeeding is an entire journey on its own. But after my 1st visit, I was so extremely happy and relieved I had someone who listened and helped me with this journey! I went in feeling 100% defeated (and exhausted) and walked out feeling confident and empowered. Only thing I would have done differently was not waited so long to make and appointment! LOVE THIS PLACE!!! LOVE Karen!
The facility is clean and very comforting.
I am very thankful for the help I received, it was truly invaluable. Bayou City Breastfeeding made all the difference for us!

Amanda at Bayou City Katy was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. She was able to answer all our questions and was able to guide us in the best directions to take with many different options for our personal situation. She was able to give us tips not only for what we should do with our infant but also gave us helpful advice on what I could do personally on my behalf to help in the process. She was patient, and we learned a lot, just from our initial visit.
Response from the owner:Hi Aika,

It's great to know that her knowledge and patience made a positive impact on your experience.

Kathy was great from my prenatal lactation visit through the first couple months of birth with my baby. She was so informative and helped navigate through some breastfeeding issues I was having. I highly recommend BCBLC.
Response from the owner:Hi Ariana!
Thank you for your review!!!! 😊 We are sure that it will help other new moms who are on the fence about contacting a lactation consultant BEFORE the baby arrives. 😊

We are so happy that Kathy was the perfect IBCLC for you and that she was able to provide you the encouragement and help on your both your pre-natal and breastfeeding journeys.

I’ve had 2 consults now with Tessa at the Jones Rd location, and baby has made so much progress with his latching. I’m not sure where our breastfeeding journey will end up, but I do know I wouldn’t have made it this far without Tessa. I’ve never felt more heard, understood, and supported. Thank you Tessa and Bayou City Breast Feeding for all that you do to help Mamas struggling to breastfeed.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so pleased that we were a part of your support team!
