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!!

I can't recommend Bayou Breastfeeding San Antonio enough. Meghan and her team were really caring, they guided me and my baby through a tongue-lip tie, post release, with body work and lots of their support we could meet our breastfeeding goals.

Suzanne is wonderful. I had a lot of trauma related to becoming a mother, a lot of trauma from having to be induced and my son having to spend time in nicu, and a lot of fear of failure as a mom. she empowered me to make decisions, to build a healthy nursing relationship with my son, and continue breastfeeding beyond my minimum goal of a year. I don't think I could have done it without her-no judgment-meet you where you are- attitude and encouragement. My son overcame his tongue tie and gain issues and is a strong, healthy, taller than average, 2 year old.

Kyna is amazing and such a great support person to add to your team in your postpartum season when trying to ensure a strong nursing experience with your new little one. She's a great listener, very well educated, and so supportive to any new or even experienced mom. I wish I had her support for my first two children but so grateful to have her with our recent little one. She's helped me nurse longer than I did with my other two. Highly recommend.

I was extremely happy with the experience I had with Ali with Bayou City Breastfeeding! She came to my home in Montgomery, TX to evaluate my 2 week old baby and me. I was having difficulties with breastfeeding, and Ali was able to identify my baby’s issue almost immediately. She helped us come up with a plan to help with the issue, helped me navigate my breast pump, and gave us tips to make our feeding experience as good as possible. Ali was so sweet and made us feel very comfortable- not to mention, very knowledgeable! The communication from start to finish with all the staff was also great! Highly recommend!

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.

Melissa was a godsend. My baby was born a full month early last September. I started seeing Melissa at the end of October after not having any success getting my baby to latch. She worked with not only helping my baby with latching but also with effectively pumping. When I was thinking about giving up on nursing, she let me know she supported me either way. I ultimately kept trying and with her help, I have been successfully nursing since the end of January. I will definitely be going back when I have my next baby.

Ariel was very helpful, patient, and informative! She also gave great recommendations and resources. The session gave me so much hope when I thought there wasn't any hope. I would definitely recommend Bayou City Breastfeeding to other families.

Mary was an amazing IBCLC. She spent hours listening, working with us, and consulting different resources to get our 4.5 lb emergency C-section baby from...

since i found out i was pregnant i knew i wanted to breastfeed. all the nutrients and bonding my baby would get was so important to me. having a traumatic birth made it hard for my little one to latch and feel comfortable breast feeding. seeking lactation help made a huge impact! once i saw tania she was so supportive and knowledgeable. she was able to tell me my baby had a tongue tie after being told by 3 different doctors “no she didn’t or it’s not bad enough to affect her feeding”. i was able to start bodywork to help my baby feel comfortable in her body and get her frenotomy done! tania supported me through everything and wouldn’t give up on helping me achieve my goal of breastfeeding after 5 months of lactation vista and bodywork my baby can now breastfeed efficiently! a BIG THANK YOU to everyone at bayou city who helped!!
