Mother breastfeeding her baby while experiencing discomfort

Most mothers stop breastfeeding before they want to.

That's because many of them are discharged from hospital having been taught forceful techniques and breastfeeding "education" that's out-of-date and inconsistent.

Evidence shows these methods can lead to painful nipple trauma and other complications that derail a woman's determination to breastfeed.

The Thompson Method is a gentle, natural  approach that helps prevent or overcome 
common breastfeeding complications.

"Why wasn't I shown this before?"

As a lactation consultant, I have sat with countless mothers and babies struggling and in pain as they contort into unnatural positions to feed. Using the Thompson Method, I've seen these same mothers and babies relax and enjoy a feed for the first time. This is often accompanied by an exclamation of "why wasn't I shown this before?"

I share their frustration. It's time we used this as a first approach to avoid many complications and tears.

Learn more than a technique

The Thompson Method is an evidence-based approach to breastfeeding, grounded in an anatomical understanding of the breastfeeding mother and her baby.
But it's about more than technique. It's about belief.

We believe every baby should be born in their own time, not at the convenience of hospital policy, which places both women and health professionals under pressure and can derail breastfeeding.

We believe forceful breastfeeding techniques should be avoided at all costs. Rather, a woman should be encouraged to trust that she and her baby innately know what to do.

We believe a woman should be respected for her strength to give birth to her baby, with the full support of how incredible both she and her baby are.

"This leads to the mum being empowered and confident."

Implementing The Thompson Method into my practice has been invaluable. Mothers report how comfortable it is [and they] learn to be more tuned into their baby's feeding cues. Milk transfer is optimal.

As the Thompson Method encourages hands-off assistance, this leads to the mum being empowered and confident in her ability and this has been a pleasure to witness.
