The Thompson Method Breastfeeding Reviews 172

The Thompson method changed my breastfeeding journey
The hospital was very forceful and and for the first 48 hours couldn’t feed well
But the Thompson me the is saved me it made me feel I had support 24/7 and managed to keep breastfeeding at 8 months pp

I'm so grateful for this course!! It absolutely changed breastfeeding for me (and honestly, even parts of my son's birth too!). I bought the course before my third child was born and almost didn't...thinking I should know it all by now, right? Wrong! Haha. I found myself wishing over and over that I had this with my previous babies. But better late than never! I've been recommending it to all my expecting mom friends. Thank you for creating such a wise, well-researched, and empowering course! BEST money and time I spent preparing for my son's birth.

I'm so glad I came across Dr Robyn's painfree breast feeding method. The videos are so clear and captivating because Dr Robyn is so kind and gentle with her approach. I got my Mum to watch them with me because I was worried that the 'old school' method of breast feeding would be pushed on me, and my Mum was instantly engrossed in the videos and singing Dr Robyn's praises. I encouraged my friends (who were pregnant at the same time) to watch and learn this method but none of them did, and they all had pain for the first few weeks and spoke about it as if it were normal to have pain. I had no pain at all. I had small nipple irritation for an initial few days which was soothed instantly with Lansinoh lanonlin ointment. I never had any of the "toe curling pain" people talk about. If I had any questions, the advisors on the face book group answer you straight away providing an almost instant service for free! Then you can do private one on one's if need be. I really do advise this method, it's cheap and you can watch the videos over and over again on an app on your phone.

Dr Robyn’s program had a huge impact on my breastfeeding journey with my first baby (emergency c section) we went for 2 years and 7 months (now 4yrs old) and now currently my second baby (c section also) is 18 months and still going strong! I started in my 3rd trimester with my first and it was a HUGE help! I’d be lost without it! I’ve recommended it to every mama I know! I’m so glad this program is still going so thank you to everyone on the team!! Mama’s, don’t hesitate, just lactate the dr robyns way!

This programme set me up to succeed. I recommend it to everyone expecting their first baby as it was the most helpful and beneficial prep I did antenatally. The Q&A provides great content and help with troubleshooting postnatally.

I teach hypnobirthing education to parents who understand the importance of being fully informed and prepared for a positive birth in every eventuality! Now I recommend the Thompson Method Breastfeeding to these same parents, as being fully informed and prepared for the breastfeeding journey BEFORE birth is just SO important!

I took the course because i was expertiing my first grandchild, i wanted my daughter to succeed. I had severe nipple trauma at the start of my own breastfeeding journey and did not want that for her.
I must say i cried a lot while i learned what small things could have been done different to prevent that trauma.

Happy to announce that my daughter did not experience any trauma, she and baby started with perfect golden hours.

Thankful for dr Robyn and her team.

Following the advice given from the digital recordings, I had no trouble breastfeeding. I was able to prevent mastitis using the methods given and even was able to pump while away without hurting my nipples.

I watched all the information The Thompson Method had and felt so prepared. I felt confident to trust myself and have successfully breastfed both my two children to the age of 18 months. With no pain and a trusted place to look for help. 100% recommend to watch the videos and follow this method, compared to what you may be advised in the hospital

I breastfed my first baby with significant nipple pain in the early months, enough to cause plenty of tears and questions about continuing on; we fortunately made it over a year even with the struggles, but only due to self-determination. I researched all of the US recommendations, attended multiple online classes, received support from multiple certified lactation consultants, and tried many different feeding positions. All of the consultants agreed that we were “doing everything right” and had “a great latch” but couldn’t offer pain relief aside from saying it would just “take time” until our baby was bigger to hopefully feel relief and have a more natural feeding experience. That struggle led me to the Thompson Method, which completely changed my experience with our second child! I was hesitant that any course would offer something different from all that I had researched and learned (US and international standards), but it was 100% worth a shot at succeeding with breastfeeding in those early days without so much torment. Dr. Robyn’s feeding techniques offered a truly “natural” feeling approach to nursing - no weird, elevated positions for baby or uncomfortable straining for me - and it absolutely worked for relieving nipple pain and finding comfortable feeding. We are still comfortably nursing at 13 months and may continue on for another year at this rate! Such a blessing! Add to that the massive amount of education the program offers about pregnancy, birth, and postpartum and the investment could not be beat! I will recommend this program to every mother I know and hope to see us all trusting our maternal instincts while peacefully breastfeeding the way we were designed.

I truly can't thank the Thompson Method enough for the profound impact it had on my breastfeeding journey—and a very special thank you goes to my incredible coach, Pam Armstrong.

With my first baby, I followed the standard hospital approach, and it was a heartbreaking struggle. I vividly remember nursing through tears, overwhelmed with pain, stress, and doubt. I questioned whether I could keep going at all.

Then, everything changed with the Thompson Method. This approach is so gentle, intuitive, and respectful of both mom and baby. It empowered me with knowledge and confidence instead of pressure and confusion. What truly made the difference, though, was working with Pam. She was an absolute gem—so warm, supportive, and full of wisdom. Her guidance felt incredibly personal—especially knowing she had breastfed three sets of twins herself! I trusted her completely, and her calm, caring presence made all the difference. The fact that I lived halfway around the world and all our sessions were over video calls didn’t matter at all—her support still felt close, genuine, and truly effective.

Now, two years later, I'm still nursing—pain-free, mastitis-free. I never thought I’d say this after my first experience, but I have no plans to wean anytime soon. Today, my daughter is thriving—off the growth charts and with incredible immunity. I have no doubt that our breastfeeding journey, supported by Pam and the Thompson Method, played a huge role in that.

To anyone struggling or even just unsure about breastfeeding—please know there’s another way. The Thompson Method changed everything for me, and I’ll be forever thankful to Pam and the entire team for giving me the tools, support, and compassion I so desperately needed.

The Thompson Method was a lifesaver. With my first I had a rescue session after some intense nipple pain/damage and switching to pumping & bottles for a few weeks — my session got me back to nursing with no pain and I nursed successfully until weaning. With my second, I had a fine tuning 1:1 session at 48 hrs old that changed everything and allowed me to nurse comfortably through nipple damage and heal without switching to pumping! I am so grateful for the Thompson method!

I have breastfed my two sons using Dr Robyn’s method. I would have had no idea how to breastfeed if I hadn’t come across her course. I felt empowered, informed and supported by the content and the community. I have recommended The Thompson Method to all my friends!

As a first time mom, it was a great comfort to inform myself on breastfeeding with the help of dr. Robyn’s expertise before having my son. I’m now past the one year mark of breastfeeding and still going strong.

I used the rescue support and it was a blessing for me and my little baby. After 5 weeks between expressing and toping up with formula we managed to finally latch and move into exclusively breastfeeding and we are now approaching month 5 of exclusively breastfeeding :) I cannot thank you enough for your support and the Thomson Method is really a blessing for us all.

Never knew nursing could be soo relaxing and enjoyable. Literally a pleasure cocktail in the brain and soo bonding with babe. Easily my favorite times of the day!

Dr Robyn's videos and information shared in the group helped me a lot when I was looking for answers to my challenges.
I learnt so much from the experience of other members of the FB group as well. It is a supportive community and teaches you that most importantly you need to trust your instinct but your instinct is more powerful when you are well informed.

I found this program when I was searching for knowledge that would help me avoid the terrible nipple trauma I had with my older child. Thanks to Dr Thompson, I knew what to do right after birth and my 3rd breastfeeding journey was smooth. I managed to heal the sore nipples quickly , avoided reflux and regulated my milk flow. The knowledge and support provided by the team are priceless !
the only thing I regret is not having discovered it for my previous children.

I watched and listened to all the videos of Dr Robyn and felt very empowered going into my first birth and I felt confident starting my breastfeeding journey. The support in the Facebook groups were great and just what I needed in the early hours of the night when the worry can kick in. I breastfed my first girl till 22 months when she self weaned. I am now breastfeeding my second child and the absolute ease.
When friends tell me they are pregnant I always suggest they buy this course. Breastfeeding is not as easy as it seems but with the help of Dr. Robyn it an be a wonderful journey.
I am really grateful!

I've truly enjoyed listening to dr. Robyn and tried to soak up the details to be able to breastfeed pain free and with overall success. I've discovered this method a bit late with my first child, and the support in the FB group was tremendous. Now with my second child, everything goes smoothly, but I have taken hours to go through the material about child birth and breastfeeding. It has been so helpful, so I hope more women would come accross this method and I am certain it will be helpful for them as it was for me. Thank you dr. Robyn and the team 💜
