About The Thompson Method:

The Thompson Method is a gentle, evidence based method towards a gentle birth and pain-free breastfeeding experience. It was created by Dr Robyn Thompson, a midwife with over 45 years experience who was awarded a PhD for her research into why so many women were being discharged from hospital with painful nipple trauma and other breastfeeding complications such as engorgement & mastitis.

The Thompson Method challenges the forceful breastfeeding techniques, linked with painful nipple trauma, that are commonly taught in most hospitals. It’s for ALL women who want to breastfeed, but particularly those giving birth in the hospital system because it offers a gentle alternative to help women AVOID the most common and painful breastfeeding complications.

But it’s more than just the technique on how to get a good latch. It is that, but it’s so much more...

“I had a really tough feeding journey with my first so bought this for my second. She latched after about 10 minutes of letting her just explore by herself and has been feeding since. She’s only 8 hours old but so far I’m thrilled! No pain.”

“The Thompson Method allowed me to breastfeed my son after not being able to do so with my daughter. The resources were incredibly helpful and straightforward. The support offered by Dr. Thompson and her team has been invaluable to me, helping me through all of the challenges I’ve faced so far. I believe every woman should have access to the life-changing information this program provides.”

“Through my pregnancy I had the hopes of breastfeeding my baby once she was born, I had no idea how I was going to do it and I had very little information and a failed attempt with my first daughter. I came across the Thompson method and I hesitated on buying the program, I didn’t know if it would be worth it. Spoke to my husband and I told him how much I really wanted to breastfeed specially after the recall on so many baby formula here in the US. So we took our chances and got the program. Watched some videos prior to the arrival of my baby. When Penelope was finally born it was show time to apply everything I had watched and learned. I was very optimistic about it too and did everything putting all my good hopes. It was a game changer! I breastfeed my baby from the moment she was born with very little problems here and there that I was able to deal with the information given by Dr Thompson in her videos. I am a nurse that was given maybe a few clases on lactation and had one failed attempt at it. The Thompson method just makes sense, I don’t know how there is so much misconception, misunderstanding, and so little education on breastfeeding. I give thanks to the admins for their prompt help when needed. I have so far made it to 9 months of breastfeeding and I don’t see me stopping any time soon.”

“A brilliant program! I had so many issues with breastfeeding such as having to wean my son off a nipple shield, lots of pain, vasospams, you name it! I wanted to give up many times. But with the Thompson Method, I felt confident to keep going and we have made it past 1 year and still going!”

“This was the best decision I made regarding my breastfeeding journey. The knowledge I gained about my rights and how to stand up for myself in the hospital regarding my decisions was what I needed. If your unsure or a first time mom definitely get this program.”

“Worth every penny. Following the teachings made my BF journey a success despite a very difficult birth and recovery. I was convinced that following my birth I would struggle with feeding. But thanks to the course I have no nipple trauma, my breasts are comfortable and I’ve avoided any issues with mastitis. Above all, my baby only lost 1.5% birth weight. The nurses were amazed! She’s thriving and I feel confident the course and the support network will help us navigate the rest of our BF journey together”

“This program gave me the confidence to advoacate for me and my babies needs from day one. My son was able to latch immidiatly after birth and has been breastfeeding on-demand for 12 months now! I have never experienced nipple pain and have loved this journey. I love this program so much, that I chose to go through the academy to become a certified educator.”

“I benefitted a lot from this method. Without this method, I would not have been able to breastfeed my daugther for 26 months and still ongoing. I could not breastfeed my first daughter and had to breast pump for 6 months in order to feed her breastmilk. I was told that my nipple was too small to breastfeed. I was committed to breastfeed my second one and found a way to do it via Thompson method. I was lucky to join one live session with Dr Thompson and she helped me to position my daughter correctly in the live session that helped me a lot. I started with nipple guard from the hospital and slowly transitioned to nipple using Thompson method. This is really wonderful method that works and provides support for breastfeeding mom as well. I am happy to assist with any further review.”

“I am a mom of 4. I have breastfed all my kids. With my 4th baby I encountered problems I never had before. He was not latching correctly. He wasn't eating very much. He seemed frustrated with me. I was in major pain. My nipples were cracking. I requested assistance at the hospital but it was not helpful. I looked into lactation consultants but they couldn't help me either. I was skeptical about purchasing the Thompson Method since I wasn't finding help but I needed something. So I purchased it. From day 1 the program has been a Godsend!!! I was able to utilize the methods right away and get my baby to latch better. It was immediately more comfortable for the both of us. I was no longer in pain, and baby was eating more than he had been able to get before that. Also, I had never been a working Mom before and had no idea how to exclusively breastfeed while working with baby away at daycare. The Thompson Method taught me how to store a supply while still being able to feed baby full time. I now swear by the Thompson Method and I recommend it to every expecting Mom I come across. I am currently expecting baby #5 and I can't wait to use the program all over again.”

“This method is amazing! I started it when my son was 3 weeks old due to his reflux issues. It turns out everything the hospital told me to do was causing these issues. Within 2 weeks on the Thompson method my baby no longer had those issues. Any struggles that popped up along the way were resolved due to the wonderful staff and loads of knowledgeable information they provided. My son is a miracle baby so he is my one and only. I’m so entirely grateful that I was able to breastfeed my only baby for 16 1/2 months. If you’re looking for information, guidance, love and support then look no further than The Thompson Breastfeeding Method! Thank you to all who helped me achieve this wonderful journey with my baby boy!”

“My son is 3 months old, and I have been able to exclusively breast feed him with complete ease and virtually no pain, which I put down entirely to the Thompson Method. I watched the videos during my pregnancy as well as regularly reading the Facebook group which gave me the confidence and knowledge going into the hospital that I was able to breastfeed without issue from day 1. It also enabled me to feel confident about my decision to have a planned c-section, by understanding my options and the implications of them. I have already recommended this course to many friends and I will continue to do so! Thank you Dr Thompson and your team!”

“I would not hesitate to recommend the Thompson Method to every mum to be who wants to breastfeed. Dr Robyn and her amazing team and my UK trainer Susanna Jackson are all just brilliant. This is my second baby and 2nd time breastfeeding and it could not be more different breastfeeding experience to my first. My first son had weight gain issues and jaudice due to not being able to feed efficiently in the first few days, he then went on to have his tongue cut, was put on reflux medication and I was told to put him on formula so many times which I managed to resist out of pure determination but not at a cost to my own mental health and eventually did have to stop feeding and gave formula at 10 months due to have no supply left at all. With my second, my husband and I can't believe what a difference there is in our second son. He's so happy and content after every feed, he sleeping in between feeds (something my first son didnt do) and considering we have a 4 year old at home our energy levels are 100 x better than the first time round which means we can give both our boys the attention they need. This is all thanks to Dr Robyn, her method, her trainers and the support of the other members of the team. They are there for you 24/7 and there is this passion from everyone for you to succeed and have the best breast feeding experience possible. Buying the Thompson Method programme will be the best gift you can give yourself and your baby.”

“I am SO grateful for The Thompson Method. I purchased the course when I was 9 months pregnant, after every single one of my mama friends had struggled and eventually quit breastfeeding. I absolutely support the choice to feed your baby however it works best, but something in me knew that there had to be a different way. They didn’t have formula ages ago, after all, so what was making the difference? I am just 5 days postpartum with my little man, but our breastfeeding journey thus far has been so beautiful. He latches himself, we adore the rest and digest snuggles, and I am celebrating pain-free feeding and having helpful strategies to deal with a bit of engorgement as my milk was coming in. Everyone told me the beginning was really tough, so I am very grateful we’ve had such a positive experience. I cannot wait to share about your course with my other expecting mama friends. It’s been so worth having to fight off the lactation consultants who want us to cross-cradle! Thank you, Dr. Robyn and team, for helping empower mothers around the world. ❤️”

“I'm not the type to write reviews often, but I HAVE to thank Dr. Robyn and crew for developing and promoting the Thompson Method. I purchased the program around six months into my pregnancy after reading books on breastfeeding and still not feeling prepared. Our first little boy was born all natural in the hospital, but spent three days in the NICU due to low oxygen (from being in my birth canal a tad too long) where they formula fed him despite my wishes to give him colostrum or donor milk. He dropped weight because he was refusing formula half the time and I was sick and not allowed in the NICU to try to feed. When they finally let me into the NICU, they tried to teach the cradle method and told me I was feeding "incorrectly." BUT because of Dr. Robyn's videos on NICU babies and breastfeeding advice, now my baby will be a month old next week and he is back to beyond his birthweight and exclusively breastfeeding with me. No pain, no breast trauma, ALL the cuddles! If you are struggling with breastfeeding or pregnant and nervous about starting, I promise you can get through it thanks to Dr. Robyn and team.”
