Find Lactation Consultant Jobs in Brooklyn Park, MN

I am 41 years old so a high risk pregnancy and was just diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes. It is important for me to have an advocate in the room who can inform me about my decisions and prefer a person of color. We are going to be at Methodist hospital

We are planning to give birth at Regions Hospital in Saint Paul and are exploring other backup options in case we get diverted. Our estimated budget for Doula support services is less than $1000. We hope to have a water birth with a desire to use Nitrous Oxide and possible IV Medications. I'd like to do what I can to avoid an Epidural and C-Section by employing natural coping strategies and intentional birth positions. We feel strongly about working with a certified Birth Doula who ideally has supported at least a handful of births. Ideally, we would be supported by someone who specializes in Trauma-informed Care, possesses advanced training with Spinning Babies or other birth support methods, has successfully supported vaginal births (with minimal tearing) for first-time moms, cares about supporting the birth partner as well as the birthing partner, annnndddd lactation/combination breastfeeding support. My husband and I are first-time parents who are eager to have as low-stress, low-intervention of an experience as possible, knowing that labor and birth are widely unpredictable. I am 35 and he (Ross) is about to be 38. The only "special needs" we have is my own personal preference for primarily plant-based organic foods! No additional needs/requests for in-home support beyond perhaps one postpartum visit to check on how our family unit is adapting.

I'm giving birth in a hospital and hope to have a natural birth. This is my second child. I had breastfeeding struggles with the first and would love someone who can help with that. I will be 35 at time of birth. If the doula wouldn't mind watching the baby for a few hours so I could get sleep after birth that would be amazing. Someone who is Christian would also be a plus. I'm hoping to find someone who also works with my insurance

Hello! My name is Haddie. I plan on giving birth at the Lakeview Hospital/birthcenter in Stillwater. I am on Medicaid and would be paying through that. My birth plan is to have a positive vaginal birth. I plan on getting an epidural. I had a fairly experience last pregnancy and labor/delivery and hoping to keep that going. I am looking for someone to help be my advocate, help me have a positive birth, and help me breastfeed successfully after.

I need help my baby is suffering latching on me and bottles

My baby is currently 6 months old, he was born premature. He’s been exclusively breastfeeding but for the last 4 months isn’t successful nursing without a nipple shield. His latch does not seem strong, almost like he’s pushing the breast back out. Ideally have in home/in person help

Shallow latch on one side and not able to latch on the other due to a flat nipple. I was able to at the beginning but it eventually split and bled a lot so I am not exclusively pumping the one side. I’ve breast fed two other babies but for some reason it’s not getting easier this time around at 3 weeks.

I am looking for a doula to help mr through pregnancy, labor and delivery, someone to be my advocate, lead me through this journey, and to also be support for my husband during labor and delivery ans maybe even some breastfeeding help and support and postpartum support. I plan to give birth in Hutchinson, Mn at Hutchinson Health. Budget roughly $1000, maybe more. I want an unmedicated, intervention free birth if at all possible.
