I had my first appointment with Brittany today, and She was so sweet and loving with me and my daughter she took her time to listen to me and care for my baby. She gave me some amazing tips and tricks and made me feel so comfortable to express all my questions. I will definitely be recommending Bayou to all of my friends.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind review! We are so honored that you chose to have Bayou City Breastfeeding as part of your support team!

Tessa is an AMAZING consultant. I literally ask her about everything! I rely on her more than I rely on my son's doctor. When I ask the pediatrician a question, I usually get "He's fine", but with Tessa I get explanations and details that help me better understand certain things. Dr. Emily is heaven sent as she helped to loosen my baby. The exercises have been working very well with him and he so flexible now and sleeps so much better. Her patience with babies is wonderful!!
Response from the owner:Hello Lee!

Absolutely love Suzanne. She is a wealth of knowledge, truly cares about you and your babies journey, and has great recommendations across the board. She is like a warm hug every time! I would and will recommend any mommas needing help to her over and over.

After a stressful prior lactation meeting with another practice, Katelyn was the breath of fresh air my child & I needed. I came away from that visit with so much information & felt so confident in our breastfeeding & recovery journey. So so thankful for Katelyn & Bayou City Breastfeeding!

Suzanne is the best! The first thing she checked was to see if my son had any restrictions in his mouth that the hospital missed. She found a tongue and lip tie! She showed me how to appropriately position to breast feed and helped gather resources for my son and I. I will be recommending them to everyone!
Response from the owner:Hi Laiya!

Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation!!!

We are so glad that Suzanne was able to guide you through the challenges of breastfeeding a baby with oral ties. It is truly an honor and a privilege to be able to assist you in this journey.

Please let us know if there is any additional help that Bayou City Breastfeeding can provide. We are so happy to have you in the Bayou City Breastfeeding family!!! 😊

Love this place! Katelyn has been so helpful with my breastfeeding journey. Truly grateful to have a place dedicated to help women feel comfortable and knowledgeable during postpartum. I would have never known my baby had a lip tie and tongue tie if it wasn’t for Katelyn. I wasn’t getting any sleep and once we clipped our baby’s tongue we had a huge improvement right away and I was able to sleep more than 1.5 hours.
Response from the owner:Hi Liz,
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 and who are facing similar sleepless nights with little ones with undiagnosed ties. It is our mission to provide our parents with all the knowledge, support and encouragement they need to overcome anything that comes along on their breastfeeding journeys.
We are so happy that Katelyn was the perfect IBCLC for you!
