Absolutely! Whether you're a first-time mother or you've been through it all before, The Thompson Method will guide you step-by-step so you can avoid common breastfeeding challenges, even if you've experienced them in the past or are experiencing them right now.

Yes! We offer one-on-one consultations through Breastfeeding Rescue.

The Thompson Method Breastfeeding Program is hosted in an online learning platform you can access from any internet-enabled device.

The information shared in this program is by Dr Robyn Thompson, a midwife with 50+ years of experience and the world's first PhD in nipple trauma.

The Thompson Method challenges the commonly taught, forceful techniques taught in most hospitals. It's gentle and encourages women to be strong and trust their maternal instincts.

We have an immense amount of respect for the professionals working within the hospital system. However, it’s important to acknowledge that hospital policies aren’t necessarily in the best interests of the breastfeeding mother and her baby, placing the professionals under pressure to conform to unrealistic time constraints.

You can address your specific issue within minutes, and you'll have access to approximately 20 hours of video content in the main program. But don't worry! The course is divided into short lessons so you can go at your own pace, discovering new information as you need it.

Your purchase includes lifetime access to the program and the support group, so you can revisit the program as your family grows.

The Thompson Method can be effective for every kind of mother and baby—mothers breastfeeding for the first time or the last; mothers who’ve had breast surgery or who’ve been told they have insufficient glandular tissue, hyperplasia, or tubular breasts; mothers with large breasts or flat or inverted nipples; twins; C-section; NICU babies; and babies with tongue- or lip-tie concerns.

Chances are, you were shown a variety of different techniques by different people. It’s one of the most common frustrations we hear from women after being discharged from the hospital!
And with the rush to get you discharged, these techniques often include forcing your baby to the breast, just to get you "breastfeeding" before you go home.

That often causes painful nipple trauma, which makes women hesitant to breastfeed, which contributes to volume concerns, and more.  The Thompson Method can help you overcome all of that.

The Thompson Method can work for any woman and her baby. However, it’s important to acknowledge that every woman and every baby are unique. It’s not a one size fits all approach.

The principles are based on the anatomy of the breastfeeding baby (Dr Robyn’s PhD research) to help women reduce the risk of painful complications, which also helps women establish and maintain their milk supply.

Of course, there are exceptions depending on your unique circumstances and there are no guarantees. If you’re not sure, or if you’re really struggling with breastfeeding and would like some 1:1 help, let us know, and our team will point you in the right direction.

We understand new babies can be expensive, and it's tough to prioritize your spending!

When it comes to breastfeeding education, it's important to be mindful that much of the free information online is inconsistent and confusing—which is the opposite of what you need right now.

Also, receiving tips shared online and from well-meaning family and friends only provides snippets of information. Our program provides you with a complete picture (along with support) so you can be well-informed and prepared to make informed decisions, even in unexpected situations.

Finally, The Thompson Method is based on Dr Robyn's extensive research as the world's first PhD in nipple trauma.

Absolutely not. Every woman and her baby is unique, and we support a woman’s decision to feed her baby how she chooses.

Our only motivation is to ensure women who want to breastfeed have the education and support they need to do so for as long as they wish.  If you're currently using formula and you'd like to transition back to exclusive breastfeeding, we can help.  If you'd rather mix feed, we can help with that too! No judgement.

The 3 Golden Hours refer to the immediate hours after a mother gives birth.

If you fall pregnant again, you'll learn how to self-advocate so you're given the opportunity to be skin-to-skin with your baby during these 3 hours, which allows you to breastfeed and form an immediate bond.

You'll also learn what to do if you don't get your 3 Golden Hours. (All is not lost!)
