The Thompson Method Breastfeeding Avis 

I’m so grateful for the help of Dr. Thompson herself before her passing and for her incredible team. I significantly struggled breastfeeding with 2 out of my 4 children. I wish I had know about the Thompson Method with all 4, but I’m grateful for the rescues I received with our last 2. It changed our lives for the better. The incredible knowledge and compassionate assistance from everyone is unmatched and the community built to support and care I haven’t found anywhere else. The Thompson Method helped me breastfeed my younger 2 babies for over 2 years each! I would also like to mention how valuable and empowering the library was during my 4th pregnancy. I am truly forever grateful! I recommend The Thompson Method every chance I get.

We saw many breastfeeding experts who all gave different advice. One even told me I probably wouldn’t be able to BF my baby because of my anatomy. After googling in the middle of the night I came across TTM. Watching the videos saved us!!! BF my first for over a year and have been EBF my second for 8 months now with no problems at all. Can’t recommend enough!

With my first child back in 2022, I was desperate to find a solution to my raw nipples. Breastfeeding was so painful. My sister told me about the Thompson Method. I ordered it same day and started my journey to painless breastfeeding. It was just what I needed. I am now three children in as of this July 2026 and it has been an incredible journey. I still feed all of my kiddos at least at night and I am pain free. Best decision I made. Thank you so much for the lessons and support. My babies are all healthy and happy!!!

This is the most comprehensive, user friendly, and personalised program I have ever seen. Thanks to the thompson method I was able to succeed breastfeeding despite c section hurdles and being separated from my baby in the hospital. If you want a program that supports YOU as well as your baby this is it. No judgement, no pressure, just helpful people sharing a program that WORKS. Even if you don't want to or can't breastfeed this program offers so much assistance with how to look after yourself and adapt to your growing baby, I recommend it to every parent I know!

Thanks to the Thompson Method, I’ve been able to breastfeed my baby for almost 16 months now! When my son was born, we started off with a few complications which caused nipple trauma. Thinking back on those vulnerable moments, it would have been entirely unimaginable to me that I would still be breastfeeding my baby this far down the line.

It is all thanks to the unwavering and loving support from the Thompson Method team (the educators, online midwives and even Jo (Dr. Robyn Thompson’s daughter) herself that I’ve been able to reach this wonderful milestone.

Through all seasons thus far, the Thompson Method family have been a source of comfort and guidance, no matter the challenge.

I’ll certainly continue to recommend this to all mums out there!

Thank you TTM team! ❤️

Everyone was so helpful to me, I was so blessed.

I struggled to bf my first, persisted with terrible nipple trauma and pain. My first bf through my second pregnancy and I was dreading feeding due to the pain. I had my second and I still experienced the same issues. I was scrolling online and was desperate to find a solution. I came across TTM and reached out through the free fb group. The team were amazing and their advice really helped.

I decided to purchase the program as I just knew it would help with a few other bf issues impacting the kids more than me. Within a few days my pain was gone!

I truly can’t thank TTM enough. They created new memories around bf my kids. I absolutely see this program as investing in yourself, there is so much more than just bf complication information. I really wish I found them sooner.

The Thompson Method was the single best purchase I've made for all four of my babies (I have four kids 4 and under at the time of writing this).

I found The Thompson Method while I was pregnant with my first. I watched the videos and absolutely fell in love with the program. It just made sense and made breastfeeding look so beautiful.

Then I had my daughter.

Being a first-time mom, I did what most moms do—I trusted the people in the room with me. The "specialists". The people everyone says are amazing.

In the moment, I put aside what I had learned through The Thompson Method and listened to them instead.
I heard:
"Nipple to nose."
"She's not getting enough."
"You're not making enough milk."
"Your Raynaud's is making breastfeeding too difficult."
"Here's a nipple shield."

Every appointment and phone call left me feeling more discouraged than the last.

When I was starting to get truly desperate, I went back to what to The Thompson Method club. They made a few simple adjustments to positioning and helped me understand how to feed in a way that protected my supply and prevented the gastric upset that was making my daughter so miserable.

They completely turned our breastfeeding journey around.

By the time my second baby came along, I knew exactly where I was going if I needed help.

Along came my son who had a lip and tongue tie that absolutely shredded my nipples. I thought, "This is my second baby. I should know how to latch a baby by now."

Apparently not.
After a couple weeks of bleeding and damaged nipples, I reached out to The Thompson Method.

Their advice? Move him about a centimeter toward his diaper. That was it. ONE centimeter.

It took me a couple tries to understand exactly what they meant. At first I moved him too far, then not enough. But once I got it right, the pain disappeared! The latch itself was still toe-curling because my nipples were already damaged, but once he was on, I could finally feed him comfortably.

Then came my twins.

They were born premature and spent time in the NICU. Those days were exhausting, emotional, and filled with people constantly weighing, measuring, and evaluating everything they were doing. As a mom, it's easy to start second-guessing yourself in that environment. But I wasn't going to let my guard down this time.
"You need to power pump"
"Don't get your hopes up too high, it'll be extremely difficult to feed twins especially preemie. I wanted to give you realistic expectations"

Because of what I had learned through The Thompson Method, I trusted my instincts. I didn't power pump to bring my supply in, I hand-expressed and latched them as often as I could. I could trust the method to bring in and maintain supply because I understood how supply worked thanks to Dr. Robyn Thompson.

We actually became somewhat of a legend in the NICU. My premature twins were tandem breastfeeding—and not just maintaining their weight, but gaining. When they moved to Continuing Care, I practically lived there. I slept on the couch because I wasn't leaving my babies.

Fifteen months later, we're still breastfeeding.

Along the way I developed a milk bleb that kept coming back and blocking milk from draining from part of my breast. After the fourth time, I finally reached out to The Thompson Method again.

Once again, they didn't just help me solve the immediate problem. They helped me understand why it was happening and showed me feeding adjustments that relieved the pressure and helped keep it from coming back.

That's something I've always appreciated about them. They don't just tell you what to do—they teach you enough that you begin to understand what's happening, so you're better equipped the next time something comes up.

Breastfeeding twins for this long isn't something I take for granted. So many women desperately want to continue but end up having to stop for one reason or another.

Thanks to The Thompson Method, I've been able to exclusively breastfeed both of my twins without needing formula. At this point, that's probably saved our family close to $6,000 total.

While I'm thankful for the financial savings, I'm more thankful for everything else that came with it. The confidence to trust my instincts. The connection feeding my babies has given me.

They helped me breastfeed four very different babies through four very different journeys. And after all of those experiences, they've become the only people I trust when I need breastfeeding help.

I highly recommend The Thompson Method to every pregnant woman I know. In fact, it's become one of my favorite baby shower gifts because I genuinely believe it's one of the best prenatal and postnatal investments an expecting mom can make.

These webinars encouraged and taught me to Breast feed without any issues at all! The first baby I had I use the standard American method and was sadly left with pain for weeks. I took a class where I was given these online classes and it was truly a blessing. I always suggest Thompson Method to all moms!

Unbelievable breastfeeding support from The Thompson Method. I took the course while pregnant and felt prepared for labor, birth, and breastfeeding. Once my baby arrived, the videos from Dr Robyn were helpful when I was experiencing pain. Happy to be pain free breastfeeding!

Im really disappointed with the Thompson Method. I purchased the program and put in time and energy to watch the videos and learn the method. Then I had a prenatal visit with a Thompson method practitioner to set myself up for success. Once my baby was born, I applied the method religiously and baby was nursing, although I started to get nipple damage. I tried so hard to fine-tune and even had 2 fine-tuning sessions with a Thompson method practitioner, who was nice, but in the end there was so much damage and no amount of fine-tuning seemed to relieve the pain. I asked if she could prescribe some APNO, which she couldn't do. So I ended up having to go to an actual IBCLC. The IBCLC was extremely taken aback by the level of nipple damage I had (even though the Thompson Method practitioner didnt seem concerned at all). It turns out that my baby has a high palate, lip tie, and very shallow latch. Unfortunately due to the Thompson method saying that a wide latch isn't needed, this wasnt something I focused on. Instead of wasting so much time on fine-tuning to address the lipstick shaped nipples and creased nipples I was getting after each feeding, I should have focused on a wide latch to address these and build good habits for my baby. By then the damage was so extensive I could only feed on one side, and eventually I was in so much pain I had to give up breastfeeding entirely. At least with my first child (before I knew about the Thompson Method) I was able to exclusively pump despite some nipple damage. Thanks to the extensive damage that happened this time, I am not even able to pump milk for my baby and had to switch to formula. I really regret following the Thompson Method and spending my early days postpartum looking towards the Thompson Method practitioner for guidance. I feel that when she saw how much nipple damage I had, she had a moral obligation to encourage me to get help from an IBCLC. Instead, she let me keep thinking that I could fine-tune my problems away. I had even stopped taking my prenatal vitamins postpartum because I was so afraid of how it would affect my milk's taste since that is mentioned several times in the course materials. Plus I was made to feel that getting an epidural was the cause of my baby being sleepy. I feel that Robyn discouraging people from taking prenatals and vilifying epidurals is unscientific and can do harm to mothers. The Thompson Method has some nice aspects like encouraging mothers to follow their instincts, but I'm truly disappointed in myself for falling for what ultimately was just a cash grab. Im so happy for everyone that had success with the Thompson Method and wish it could have worked for me too. I think if I had gone straight to the IBCLC from the beginning, I would still have been able to provide breastmilk for my baby. One last thing I want to mention is that as someone who has a PhD myself, I feel that Robyn being called "Dr. Robyn" is a bit misleading and dishonest in a medical context, and ultimately breastfeeding advice is medical advice.

The Thompson Method for Breastfeeding helped me gain confidence to exclusively breastfeed both my babies and troubleshoot common hurdles that can occur. It helped teach me about good latches, best positions for feeding, how to get your milk supply up/consistent, really all the essentials for breastfeeding that are not taught. It is also a great community for breastfeeding support. There is no judgement. Everyone is encouraging and the admins always provide helpful tools.

I bought this for my first in 2022 and it has help with her and my second who came along in 2025.

When preparing to give birth to my child, this program was the most important thing, that I could possibly ever get. It was, and still is extremely helpful, even after the 2nd year of my breastfeeding journey. Dr Thompson's gentle approach was unparalleled.

I think this is something truly valuable what this group is doing, which is unique in today's world. Decades of success, decades of experience in helping mothers with breastfeeding. I joined too late for my son, we had a very rough start, but I feel he would have benefitted from it.

The Thompson method answered all my questions and gave me the confidence to have a great breastfeeding journey. My little one is currently 11 months old and has been EBF since birth. I went through the course before giving birth but I have also come back to it many times whenever I needed some guidance. It's very easy to see the course on your phone and the Facebook group is full of great questions from mothers breastfeeding in real time and answers from a knowledgeable team from the Thompson method. There is a lot of contradicting information on breastfeeding out there but I can assure you that what you find in this course ACTUALLY works. It's been very rewarding knowing I am giving my little one the best start in life

Breastfeeding is a miraculous source of food for the baby but it’s been a healing process for the mom too. It’s so worth learning for.

I am so grateful for the resources provided in this program. It gave me the confidence and guidance I needed throughout my breastfeeding journey.

The Thompson method was essential for my two successful exclusive breastfeeding journeys. My first was born via c section and even though we did the golden hour, in three breastfeeding sessions guided by the nurses I had gotten a blister. As soon as I got to the room, I started positioning my baby as shown in the course and the relief was immediate. I kept avoiding guided nursing sessions with the nurses, and waited for them to leave to do my thing. My baby gain weight incredibly well and I had not paint at all. And it was the same with my second.
I can’t recommend this course enough.

I am a midwife and I can’t recommend the Thompson Method enough. Once I’ve introduced the wonderful woman’s method you can see the relief on the mother’s face. My passion is to help women breastfeed so to be able to teach the Thompson method is brilliant.
Thank you Robyn for all your wisdom.

I was 6 weeks post-partum, nearly engorged and miserable and I found this program.It helped me exclusively breastfeed my 1st born at the height of covid lock downs with no more pain. With a wealth of knowledge and expertise, and a gentle but factual approach. I was also able to feed my 2nd baby with no problems at all right from birth. I feel that if I had another baby I would be confident to exclusively breastfeed again. I have also recommended to maternal health care providers and friends.
