Navigating Tongue and Lip Ties: Empowered Women Making Informed Choices

Every woman and her baby are unique.

Over 50 years as a Midwife and with a PhD in Nipple Trauma and breastfeeding expert Dr Robyn Thompson has only referred 2 babies for oral procedures. Her preference is to create gentle methods to help women learn how to overcome breastfeeding challenges should they arise.

It's important that women are provided with the opportunity to make thoughtful and informed decisions, rather than being under pressure to make quick decisions, particularly when it comes to tongue ties and lip ties.

Please be reassured that we respect every woman's right to choose what is best for her baby and we care deeply about helping her unique journey be a well informed and gentle experience. Free from judgement. Free from pain. ❤️

How can I breastfeed with flat nipples?

"Breast Refusal, low weight gain, tongue tie issues, nipple shields, cracked and bleeding nipples...."

“I had successfully breastfed my previous 5 and then had significant challenges with my 6th. Complete refusal to latch, low weight gain, low supply, tongue tie, just to name to a few. I was using bottles, nipple shields, SNS feeding systems, I was a total mess with cracked bleeding nipples.

I tried everything and everyone, including 2 different lactation consultants, private midwives, ECH nurse, tongue tie clinic. Not one person could help. I was literally looking at at can of formula with tears in my eyes.

Within 3 weeks of working with Dr Robyn using The Thompson Method my son was exclusively breastfeeding from both breasts pain free. If it wasn’t for The Thompson Method and the amazing team I wouldn’t still be breastfeeding 1 year later.

I just wish I had’ve known about the program while I was pregnant.
