Dr Robyn Thompson. A lifetime of midwifery.
Dr Robyn Thompson PhD OAM was a midwife for more than 50 years, in hospital and at homebirth. Ā This unique perspective inspired her to explore why so many women were being discharged from hospital with painful nipple trauma, while the women in her care were not. Ā Her PhD research looked at how commonly taught techniques, and interventions around birth, relate to breastfeeding challenges. She was awarded the Order of Australia Medal, and The Thompson Method has helped more than 98,000 mothers and professionals worldwide.
