What Is The Thompson Method Breastfeeding?

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 of experience who was awarded a PhD for her research into why so many women were being discharged from the hospital with painful nipple trauma and other breastfeeding complications such as engorgement & mastitis.

The Thompson Method challenges the forceful 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.  It’s having the knowledge to understand that what happens during your labour and birth will significantly influence your breastfeeding journey.

​It’s understanding how breast milk is produced so that you have the confidence to trust that your breasts will nourish your baby without fear of low supply.  

​It’s about being empowered to feel that you are in control of your labour, birth and breastfeeding experience. It’s the awareness that nipple shields, bottles, teats and dummies (pacifiers) will also impact on your breastfeeding journey.  And at the very foundation of this gentle, evidence-based method is a very powerful belief...

A belief that every woman and her baby is unique.

It’s a belief that every baby will be born in its own time; not at the convenience of hospital policy.It’s an understanding of the importance of the first breastfeed and that routine procedures should not interrupt or delay this precious time between a mother and her baby.

It’s having respect for the strength of one woman to give birth to her baby, with full support of how incredible both she and her baby are.​

When you adopt The Thompson Method along with the thousands of women who’ve also embraced this method to give birth to and breastfeed their babies, you will reduce the risk of common complications such as nipple trauma, breast engorgement and mastitis.   You will also increase the likelihood of being able to bond with your baby and breastfeed pain-free for as long as you choose.

Oh wow where do I start? I'm so so glad I was recommended this course and so blessed I got to do it with the sweetest soul Nida!

I am going to become a first time mother, I didn't have much knowledge on breastfeeding and labour, this course shown to me through Nida has given me so much knowledge and she has made me feel so calm and empowered going forward into this journey. I couldn't have done it without her!

I highly recommend this amazing course to everyone, it has helped me millions! Thank you so much Nida 🤍

Where do I start!?
My confidence had been knocked from my first pregnancy and being coaxed into topping up with formula which i carried into my subsequent 2 pregnancies.
Nida really helped me to relax into my body and trust our journey how ever that turned out to look.
I am eternally grateful. I now have a 4.8kg 8 week old. I have roughly followed the thompson method to what felt right to my unique journey. I mostly feed on one breast which slightly complicates things, but i have found what works for us, all thanks to Nida, AND a massage, ladies please get postpartum massages too!
Nida has such a warm and genuinely loving energy, you won’t regret investing in yourself. I only wish that i had invested prior to giving birth rather than urgently needing to afterwards. Whether first time or not I’m sure you learn valuable information from the Thompson method and Nida!

I knew Nida through work even before I was expecting and was really intrigued to know more when I heard she offered support and advice for expecting mums.
As this was my first pregnancy I appreciated all the information I could get before baby arrived and found the material Nida talked through really helpful. I didn't really have much knowledge of breastfeeding though I did know that was the way I ideally wanted to feed my baby so enrolling on the course was a great help in learning in how I could best do so.
I've been exclusively breastfeeding my baby since he was born for just over 12 weeks now, learning about the Thompson method through Nida has definitely helped during my breastfeeding journey. I would highly recommend both to all expectant mothers, especially first time mums who don't know what to expect once baby arrives

Nida was amazing at delivering this course to myself and has helped me immensely during my breastfeeding journey as a first time mother. I had little to no knowledge on the labour process and breastfeeding at the beginning of my pregnancy and the knowledge I have learnt from Nida has been so beneficial and has definitely made this process feel less overwhelming. Having a child is a life changing event and by enrolling on to this course it will equip you for every stage of the birth and breastfeeding process - I would definitely recommend!
