Brandy is absolutely amazing. My first breastfeeding experience did not go as planned. This experience has been much better, and much less stressful!
I needed guidance on how to navigate breastfeeding my toddler while pregnant and Miranda and Megan did not disappoint! They both helped me form a plan for continuing to bf my toddler while also setting new routines to facilitate night weaning and encourage longer stretches of sleep for the both of us.
I love my consultant Katelyn. She is super professional and gave me great suggestions.
It’s always worth it. Ariel was very kind to me early on in the online triage. Kathy has come in person twice and she is amazing. She is always extra helpful sharing her vast experience. They’re very professional.
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.
