We need help with our one week old latching and sucking during breast feeding. When we try to latch all he does is cry. He seems to favor him left side as well.
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 :)
Giving birth most likely in mechanicsburg area. Looking for doulas that accept tricare Prime. This is my first and I want to go as holistic as possible, and try for no epidural.
Everything breastfeeding. We are frustrated with irregular milk supply and techniques. Budget is bigger for someone who can actually help and do it quickly
Inverted nipples painful latching looking for lactation consultant to come to house.
Birth center As natural and low intervention as possible
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 don’t think i’m producing enough for my daughter. We are starting to notice a stagnant weight and if i pump after feeding i can’t produce any milk and she is still hungry. It has recently started and can’t figure out how to save my breastfeeding journey
Help with latch, baby gaining slowly. She clicks sometimes when nursing like she’s losing suction
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.
I have started this journey to re-lactate. My daughter is 2 she stopped taking the breast or milk 10 months ago. I was an over supplier then. Rewind to today. My sister (cancer worrior) had a baby March 1 st. I've been trying to make milk for her baby... here is my problem, the milk came in. But just beads of milk. I've literally tried everything. Haven't given up. Still trying still pumping every 2 hours. And I don't know what I'm doing wrong, to do it right!
I plan to give birth at the hospital My budget for a doula is 1000-2000
Looking for prenatal care to start with. I recently found out I was pregnant, so I would like an initial prenatal visit.
I would like more info on having a home birth. Our budget is tight, and I’m not sure what “rates” are for home birth deliveries. I’ve always been on the fence about home births, but our current insurance (husband’s) is extremely expensive for what we can afford. Also, I am considered high risk due to my weight, but so far no concerns with the baby otherwise. This is my second pregnancy, and in the last week (around 38-39 weeks) I was diagnosed with gestational hypertension. Otherwise I had a healthy first pregnancy, and so far this pregnancy is healthy as well.
Saint Joseph hospital, Reading PA. I have amerihealth caritas as insurance Normal delivery
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.
