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...

“Just wanted to share our successful EBF story 🤱🏻. We are officially 8 months and still going strong 💪🏼. For all those new mommas, it does get better, for all those with “flat” nipples, it does get better, for those who use nipple shields, it does get better. This is what 🤱🏻 in Disney looked like this past week and what our R&D looks like nowadays 💞. Thank you for this group and thank you Dr Robyn Thompson - The Thompson Method”

“I cannot recommend The Thompson Method program enough! I have been exclusively breastfeeding my baby girl for 7 months now. I am so proud of myself. I have experienced no pain whatsoever and my milk supply has been beautiful. The Thompson Method is amazing! For those of you on the fence, just do it! It's my first time breastfeeding and I absolutely love it. It is almost time for my daughter to begin solids, so I wanted to share my experience to encourage all the mommies out there to keep going in this precious breastfeeding journey. Thank you Dr Robyn Thompson for a pain free breastfeeding experience!!!”

“I am so thankful I found the Thompson Method! After a planned home birth had to get transfered to the hospital, my entire birth and breastfeeding plan seemingly went out the window. Baby girl arrived happy and healthy, even with a rocky start. With the information I gained from the course, I was able to advocate for me and my daughter and not allow the lactation consultants to force her to my breast. We are currently 2.5 weeks in to our journey, and absolutely loving it!! No pain!! Baby girl has gained over a pound since birth. My midwife is so thrilled with her progress and our success. We have no end in sight.”

“After struggles with being told I had flat nipples, using a nipple shield, pumping and bottle feeding and hating having a “middle man” between me and feeding MY baby, I decided to really stick with the Thompson method and trust the process. Even after 3 weeks of no breastfeeding we were still able to do it with the Thompson Method! I want to encourage my fellow mammas out there who may need to hear it, DON’T give up! My baby and I are still learning everyday but, in those early weeks if you would have told me we would eventually be here at 7 weeks, and I would be feeding my child with no pain and no cumbersome shields, I wouldn’t have believed you. Keep going mammas, and trust your instincts! You’ve got this , and don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t breast feed if that’s your heart’s desire. My baby girl and I thank you, Doctor Robin and the Thompson Method!”

“Prior to the Thompson Method I had no idea of all the benefits breastfeeding provided. I truly learned so much and feel so thankful I found this program. I learned how to advocate for myself and most importantly learned how to painlessly feed my baby. We are one year in and going strong :)”

“To be given the tools (knowledge & confidence) to do what is best, for you & your bub, is such a gift. Dr Robyn & the team empowered me to trust my instincts & feed both my girls to perfection.”

“The most amazing feeling of being able to exclusively breastfeed my fifth baby, she is the only one I have been successful with all due to the gentle approach of the Thompson Method. I highly recommend if you are not confident or are having difficulties breastfeeding. The support system is like no other, and they make you feel confident as a mother by following your instincts. My baby is four months old and I don't see myself stopping anytime soon.”

“I never expected to learn so much from this program since I breastfed my first born until he was 13 months! My second amazing experience came when I asked questions online! The guidance were great and made a difference… I also appreciate how quickly I got a response. My daughter is 4.5 weeks and growing amazingly! I bought the entire program when mid-pregnancy and the pre-natal session were impressive, giving me plenty of resources to confidently discuss my care as a “old” pregnant person! Absolutely worth the investment - money and time reviewing the materials!”

“I just want to say thank you. Having just purchased Dr. Robyn's breastfeeding course four days ago (my baby is two weeks old), it has already helped us to improve our breastfeeding significantly. I am amazed! I suffered damaged nipples as a result of forceful techniques used by the nurses at my hospital, which was followed by using a nipple shield and supplementing with formula. Thanks to what I’ve learned from Dr Robyn, I'm now almost completely pain free and no longer supplementing with formula. I couldn't be happier. Thank you to everyone involved in the breastfeeding club in particular to Dr Robyn Thompson for creating this method of breastfeeding. I only wish I had discovered you before having my daughter.”

“When I was pregnant, all of my mom friends warned me that breastfeeding was difficult and painful and there was no way around it. I really wanted to provide the best care for my baby but I wasn't sure I would be able to do it. When I saw the ad on Facebook for pain-free natural breastfeeding methods I was immediately interested. I immediately fell in love with how Dr. Robyn approached breastfeeding by allowing the baby to use its natural instincts.i owe all of my success to this program and other moms asking questions. I recommend this to anyone that is looking to breastfeed.”

“Day two- we have had multiple compliments about his latching and natural instinct to want and take the boob. Not every time is perfect but he's getting enough . We haven't had to substitute with formula 🥰 I even convinced my husband to watch the Thompson Method videos with me. N that's helped my husband to understand what I was trying to do . He loved the videos. My husband is now overseeing our progress and he no longer feels like he's on the sidelines. I love this program n the group. Thank you for everything ❤ I'm sure you'll be hearing from me soon🙃”

“Thank you Dr Robyn for your amazing course,and incredible breastfeeding support that has helped me breastfeed with my second baby. I was unsuccessful at breastfeeding my first had lots and lots of struggles including severe pain, engorgement, low supply and a really unsettled baby. In the end I expressed for him for seven months and I still feel guilty about it. This time around has been a totally different experience. If I was to be successful I knew I needed more information and more support for my breastfeeding journey. So I got the Thomson method breastfeeding course and I’ve never looked back. It has been the best thing I have ever done. If you are undecided I’m here to tell you you won’t regret it. The information you receive is world class. The support you receive is like nothing I have ever experienced before. You ask a question and you have a response within an hour and that’s any time day or night. What I love as well is that the advice or comes from Dr Robyn herself. The support community is non-judgemental, just 100% supportive. What Dr Robyn has created is truly special. I had an initial breastfeeding goal of three months. And here we are, almost 9 months later, still breastfeeding. The road ahead of us seems endless, I truly treasure that beautiful bonding time, there is no better feeling. My thanks goes out to Dr Robyn and her team for all they do. I have felt completely in control and happy (which was a personal goal of mine) to successfully breastfeed my baby. It’s been an amazing experience. Thank you ❤️”

“Signing up to the Thompson Method program was the best thing I’ve done for our breastfeeding journey - this time two weeks ago my nipples were so sore that I was feeling anxious before every feed, it was horrible. I even contemplated giving up. Now two weeks on I barely have any pain (only a bit on initial latch) and I’m feeling so much more comfortable with breastfeeding using this method! 🙏🏻”

“Yesterday marks 8 weeks that these two sassy bebes have been getting mama’s milk. I don’t really have any questions, just a huge thank you to Dr. Dr Robyn Thompson - The Thompson Method and all of the amazing admins that have helped give us advice so that we could make it this far. Jasper and Grace are thriving. They have doubled their birth weight from 5lbs 1 oz and 5lbs 12 oz to 10lbs 6 oz for both of them currently and we couldn’t be more excited about how amazing this journey has been for them. Baby girl had a tough go at the start in the NICU on a feeding tube because she wasn’t eating on her own and they both lost too much weight in the beginning and also had super hi bilirubin levels. Today we have gotten past all of that and are starting to get chunky little rolls and happy tummies from mama’s milk. Thank you again for the support and for all that you do for us mamas to help us take care of our babies the best we possibly can. ❤️”

“6months EBF today! I’m so proud of myself! I’ve loved every minute. Currently starting weaning and even more proud of myself for pumping for the first time this week to make her some porridge out of mummies milk. Thank you for all the support and videos, we are very lucky as it has been pretty plain sailing for us due to me watching all the videos and rewatching them before she arrived. I would totally recommend anyone wanting to breastfeeding to by this program…in fact I have to many already!”

“I wouldn’t be where I am in my breastfeeding journey without the Thompson Method. My baby was diagnosed with tongue, lip and cheek ties and I didn’t feel comfortable with surgery, and I found Dr Robyn and was able to take away nipple shields, supplemental nursing systems, bottles and pacifiers completely. Baby is now 3 months old and thriving!! I can’t thank Dr Robyn enough for the help. I’ve recommended the program to multiple people now!”

“I love The Thompson Method. It has helped me so much with my breastfeeding journey... I definitely recommend the program to anyone who wants to breastfeed and beyond. Breastfeeding is definitely not easy and the program and the private support group has been so supportive and helpful! I've been exclusively breastfeeding my youngest since day one thanks to The Thompson Method. When there are struggles, keep going because success is only around the corner. When you feel down, get support, don’t wait! I failed to breastfeed my first. I wanted so badly to succeed but the pain was just too much. I wish I had found this program and support group back then. I know things would have turned out a lot differently. Thank you for the expert advice and support you have given me. You have given us a precious gift and bond. I will be forever grateful 💕”

“I wanted to drop you a line to say thank you Dr Robyn and the The Thompson Method breastfeeding support team for all of the wonderful work you do. Thanks to you I've been breastfeeding for almost 2 years now. The course and support has given me the knowledge and confidence that made it possible to EBF for this long. I am so proud. In my circle of friends, I'm the only one who has made it this long breastfeeding. Needless to say I've been telling them all about your method. This is not a post to boast, but to say thank you! It wouldn't have been possible without you, your method and your wonderful team!”

“With my first baby, breastfeeding was not a possibility as I was starting chemo ten days after he was born. I was heartbroken but I needed to get myself well. I wanted to breastfeed for that short time but I didn’t find any education on the topic and when I was taught how to feed my baby, the forceful technique did not set well with me at all. I tried on my own and did my best those short ten days. We were extremely excited when we found out we were pregnant again and our son was so happy to welcome his sibling. I enrolled in prenatal classes (I definitely needed a refresher course after 12 years) and researched education, lactation groups and all sorts of supplies I thought I needed for breastfeeding. Thanks to the magic of Facebook ads, The Thompson Method popped up in my feed and after a few days, I took a listen and for me, it just made sense. I purchased the program and began going through the videos. Our prenatal classes we’re cancelled due to Covid but I learned so much though the modules that were provide. It gave me so much knowledge especially during a time of so much unknowns. I had an amazing experience overall. I was stressed about having gestational diabetes at first, but I worked to get it under control and was able to deliver baby at 40 weeks. When it came time to have my three golden hours, I was amazed at how my baby’s instincts were working being minutes old. That magical moment and the last 365 days during this journey would have not been possible without all the knowledge I obtained through this program and the support from the admins in this groups. I did have a bit of pain by day three but I found the fine tuning resources to help me through that and the responsive from the team to help me resolve that quickly. There were tough days and but we worked through the challenges one day at a time. Dr. Robyn, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your dedication to helping women and for this wonderful community. I don’t think I’d have had the success without your program and the confidence it instilled in me to trust my instincts. This has been one of the hardest things I’ve done but also the more rewarding.”
