Help baby latch and stay latched so I can pump less and nurse more

John Hopkins Hospital Price: $1,800-2,000 My goal is to have an Unmedicated birth. This will be baby #2 for us. I had a pretty bad experience with my first where my wishes and concerns were completely ignored. I really wish I had someone there to advocate for me when I couldn’t think clearly, my nurse was very evil person and caused a lot of pain and negativity while I was in labor. I get back labor, and the pain is so unbearable I’d really need someone to help me cope and push through! I’d also love a doula who is very informative on certain things hospitals tend to force mothers into. Would love if my doula were seasoned with At least 4 years of experience. I had a very hard time with postpartum recovery which I believe hindered me from being able to breastfeed since I was under so much stress. I would really love to breastfeed this time around.

Mother helper. Helping me manage postpartum with 2 toddlers an a new addition to the family.

Looking for prenatal care to start with. I recently found out I was pregnant, so I would like an initial prenatal visit.

I plan to give birth at home, with a midwife, budget is dependent on services provided, looking for a doula and lactation consultant that takes tricare prime, who speaks. Thank you!

I am planning to give birth at Frederick Health Hospital (Frederick General Hospital) in Frederick, Maryland. My estimated due date is May 15, 2026. This will be my second baby, and I am hoping for a supportive birth environment with a doula who is familiar with hospital births. am looking to work with a doula who accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance or whose services may be covered or partially reimbursed through this insurance. I am also interested in postpartum support for approximately two weeks after delivery, so I am open to discussing the budget depending on insurance coverage and the services included My goal is to have a natural, unmedicated birth if possible. I would appreciate a doula who can provide calm emotional support, help with breathing techniques and labor positions, and support my preferences for a low-intervention birth whenever it is safe for both baby and me. Since this is my second baby, I am hoping for a smooth experience with guidance during labor and reassurance throughout the process.

A lactation specialist to help me feed my baby. Currently, we are doing breast feeding with a nipple shield, but it is painful so we are only doing a few sessions a day. The rest is pumped milk in a bottle. He will not latch to the bare breast. The nipple shield was introduced because he had trouble latching while in the NICU. He had to take fortified breastmilk to help gain weight which was given in a bottle. The other issue is that he is fussy with feedings. We think it is gas and we started gas drops. We have tried changing the nipple flow (slower and faster), doing paced feedings in different positions, burping frequently, bicycle kicks, tummy rubs etc. the fussiness is mostly during the daytime hours. The pediatrician started him on reflux medication but it didn’t seem to make a difference. I am not convinced it reflux.

Just had posterior tongue tie and lip tie clip. Preferring bottle, not opening wide enough.

I’m looking to hire a midwife or a doula or both! If I am able to find a midwife then I’d really like to do a home birth but if that ends up not being an option I would like to hire a doula for a hospital birth. My budget is $2500 but I am flexible and am looking to see if insurance will cover. I have WV Medicaid. I’m looking to have a natural birth with no interventions, and have a doula or midwife that will support and help make that happen. No age requirements, would prefer someone who has had at least one baby but if not that’s ok too! I’m a 21 year old married, first time mom! No special needs or requirements. Someone with knowledge on breastfeeding would be great as well!

Hi, Since my baby was born I’m having problems with latching. Is very painful. I tried different positions and strategies and is still very painful. Sometimes even after pump my nipple is sore. In a couple times it haven’t hurt but most of time it hurts.

post caesarian section on 1/14; wanting to breast feed; mum in lots of pain

My wife is having some difficulty with one of her breasts. The nipple on her right side was bruised due to a bad latch (or more than one) and now we over rely on the left breast. When she tries the right side, it hurts and there was recently some blood. We are hoping to find someone to help remedy this problem so that it doesn't lead to a bigger problem.

I am inquiring on behalf of my son and daughter-in-law who just had their second baby. Baby is not latching on… Milk is not coming in. They are giving formula but still want to breast-feed… So we just want someone to come in and help her get the baby latched and show her what techniques to use before she completely gives up.

I need some hands on help with breastfeeding a sleepy, fussy, slow eater baby. We have been breastfeeding, but she makes hungry cues even after long breastfeeding sessions. I try to keep her awake by being out of the swaddle and engaging her with touch, but she still falls asleep. We have supplemented with formula to satisfy her hunger after a breastfeeding session.

Holy Cross silver spring hospital. Lactation consultant Postpartum care

I need help getting my baby to latch onto my breast to feed, she will latch occasionally but only when she’s sleepy or doesn’t realize it’s the breast. She is 3 months old and I’m hoping it’s not too late to have her latch.. I am currently pumping but I would really like help getting my baby to exclusively breastfeed. Any help is appreciated! I have Humana insurance. It is a Medicaid provider but am willing to pay out of pocket in order to reach my goals. Thank you!!
