Find Lactation Consultant Jobs Near Elizabeth, NJ

I am currently pregnant with my second child (a boy). My first delivery in short was a series of unfortunate events that ended in a c section. I would to try for a TOLAC/VBAC. My doctors have said I’m a great candidate for it. I plan on giving birth at Baystate in Springfield MA. I am have a lot of anxiety about my birth not only due to the last time but this time around there has been a lot of miss communication and I just don’t want to be worried about everyone being on the same page while trying to have a successful labor. While having an epidural isn’t out of the question or having other medical interventions isn’t out of the question I’d like to just let my body do its thing and labor naturally with alternative pain management methods. I honestly have zero idea what a doula even costs to even know what is reasonable, if it’s covered by insurance etc.

I plan to give birth at the hospital My budget for a doula is 1000-2000

I am currently in my 24th week of pregnancy, and have so far had a smooth pregnancy. My due date is July 13, 2026 and I plan to give birth at St. Peter's hospital in Albany, NY. We are open to budget, but would like to stay under $3,000. I am not sure if I will need a lactation consultant, but wanted to look at options and learn more so I can make an informed decision about it. My birth plan is to ideally be minimally medicated, and not have a full epidural. I would like to be able to get up and walk around, use the bathroom, and switch birthing positions based on what feels comfortable with minimal limitations. I hope to have a vaginal birth and learn more ways to prepare for a safe one.

Lactation Consultant, baby was a preemie and still isn’t latching well

I’ve had 3 miscarriages in the last 5 years. My fourth pregnancy, 2 years ago was a healthy, full term baby who is now 2 and doing amazing with no complications during my pregnancy or my delivery. I’m now 21 weeks pregnant with my second son and my experience with UPMC has been nothing but stressful and uninformative. My charts have yet to be corrected for the last 2- 3 months I’ve been going to them. I’m at the point where I don’t feel like my doctors are listening or caring about my wishes/concerns. I am starting to lean towards a home birth with minimal intervention. With my son I got to 9 1/2 cm dilated before I got my epidural last minute and had no issues or barely any discomfort with my contractions. This one is a bit more uncomfortable and I would like to try to do the same as before but without medicine. I have no issue going to a birthing center if need be, I know the travel home with my last hurt me a lot so I was hoping to minimize the distance of travel for my second time around. I also had issues with my son latching for breastfeeding and went to see a lactation consultant twice but she took over an hour to come see us each time which resulted in my son screaming of hunger so I would end up bottle feeding him before she’d come as she took too long and then refused to help us when she heard he was bottle fed so I would like to learn more about breastfeeding if possible either through classes or having someone help me after birth. Our budget is probably $2500-4000. I’m not sure what my insurance covers but would love to look into it more with someone if we can. I’m at the point where I don’t trust my current providers, as too much has gone wrong or missed and I just want to cancel all appointments until I give birth so I’m hoping this is a better alternative for me.

I need a certified birth dola to help me deliver baby at home and also a night time nanny to help me assist with newborn for bedtime and a postpartum therpist after birth to help with mental and a breastfeeding feeding coat for best way to maximize milk production for baby. I don't want no pain meds for labor all natural! Just a bath warm birth with soft music and massages to ease pain during labor. I don't want my newborn baby vaccines at all! No testing on my newborn at all. Want umbrella cord to stay attach to baby until it stop pumping in the rest of the stem cells in baby. I want to keep plactea and umbrella cords and put in cold cooler for refrigerator to preserve it. I want atena medicaid to pay for certified dola and all the other providers for their services and the price will depend on the dola with medicaid with atena insurance from patients.

This is my first time trying pumping/breastfeeding, my daughter was a formula baby mainly because I didn’t know anything about breastfeeding and was doubtful of my bodies capabilities. We are currently trying combo feeding but using more breast milk, I just want to know everything because I’d like to pump/breastfeed for at least the first year.

Hello!! Would love some in-home help as we move forward with a tongue and lip tie revision. We have been on an up-hill battle after finding our daughter to be underweight at her 2month appointment. We found that she has a class 4 lip tie and class 3 posterior tongue tie. We plan to move forward with a revision but want to ensure a proper latch with the goal of getting her back to breast (currently pumping and bottle feeding). Thanks :)
