The hold is great if that’s all the advice you take, but all their other advice is terrible. They contradict themselves in videos and at 1-2-1 appointments. Examples: Don’t take a supplement/ but dr t says to drop one in your Donut. Don’t bother pumping to increase supply/ the only way to increase supply is gentle stimulation. Baby will refuse bottle if not hungry/ or no baby will take bottle if given to them. Wait three hours/ but not unless it’s hot out. Told me to get baby feeding every 3 hours- not to slightly increase the times between feeds, so ignoring baby’s cues they were then overly hungry and wouldn’t breastfeed at all. Total set back in bf journey. Baby now screams when put in the Thompson hold.
