Hi there, my name is Erin Edwards and my daughter Evelyn is a one week old that is having trouble latching. We had some successful nursing sessions yesterday after seeing a lactation consultant at our pediatrician but starting last night, she is super fussy and can’t be calmed down enough to latch. She did cluster feed for about 5 hours last night and I was able to use a nipple shield until about 5am. From then on, she wouldn’t take the nipple shield and wouldn’t even take the syringe, so I am now bottle feeding and pumping. It is my desire to breastfeed, but I’m really discouraged and cry every failed breastfeeding session. My husband and I are looking for someone that can come to our home and is covered by our insurance to help us. Thank you.

This is my first pregnancy, and I would like to receive as much help as possible to deliver a healthy baby. I want to give birth at St. Joseph's Women's and am hoping I can labor at home before transitioning into the hospital. I have pregnancy Medicaid and haven't completed my birth plan as of yet. I'm currently 26 weeks and hoping to go full term.

First baby. Planning on giving birth at advent health Wesley chapel. Looking for someone who can support my husband and I.

Hello. This is my first baby. I plan to give birth at a hospital. I’m looking for support during the labor process and somebody that can help with breastfeeding and any question/concerns my husband, or myself may have. We have tricare select and the cost of the birth and prenatal care is covered.

My last birth was a freebirth at home, i would prefer to have a medical team of some sort on hand for a homebirth this time. I am currently uncertain on a budget. I would like to plan a homebirth if pregnancy remains low risk. Labor in a quiet, calm environment. Dim lighting. Minimal unnecessary interruptions. Freedom to move, walk, squat, kneel, or change positions as desired. Access to water for comfort measures and possible waterbirth if appropriate. I would prefer non medication comfort measures first. Water immersion, position changes, breathing techniques, massage and counter pressure, and encouragement from support people/team. I would like to avoid unnecessary interventions when i and the baby are doing well. Informed consent before any non-emergency procedures. I would also like to have clear explanations of risks, benefits, and alternatives before decisions are made whenever possible. For delivery i want to be able to push according to my bodys urges rather than directed pushing if safe unless i ask otherwise . Freedom to choose birthing position. I want the baby on my chest immediately if both of us are stable. The golden hour is very important to me. I want delayed cord clamping. I want my partners involved in the delivery and cutting the cord. I would also like to deliver our placenta naturally if safe. I would like to initiate breastfeeding as soon as possible. Routine newborn procedures delayed until after bonding when medically appropriate. Keep mother and baby together whenever possible. Transfer to hospital if medically necessary. Preference for clear communication throughout any transfer. I would prefer a provider who is open minded to odd family dynamics and who has been practicing for at least 5-6 years. I am 28 years old, this is my fifth pregnancy and hopefully fourth birth.

My baby had a great latch in the hospital, but my milk didn’t come in right away. Once my milk came in I had no issues feeding, we were primarily breast feeding and I’d pump once overnight for comfort and he’d get a formula bottle every once in a while so dad could feed him. I went back to work and I was pumping 3x during my workday with wearables and was getting ~4oz/day (which I would’ve preferred to be higher at that time) but noticed a decrease in my supply afterwards so I started using the spectra and now a month after using the spectra and increasing my frequency of pumping at work to 4x a day I’m still noticing only 1-2oz/day output

I plan to give birth at Winnie Palmer Hospital in Orlando, FL I am seeking a birth doula that would be covered under Tricare insurance I plan to have labor and delivery that is safest for baby. I will be using epidural. Certified doula that can advocate for my needs and help through the labor especially if it’s been a long labor. I was 32 hours in labor with my first and did not feel supported by the nurses. I am 33 and seeking a doula that can support me through every step of labor and delivery including postpartum Mainly hospital support and the night after to help with self care and breastfeeding as a lactation consultant never met me the first time.

I have been working with a lactation consultant and she says my daughter has a good latch. I don’t believe it and want a second opinion. I’m 5 weeks and 4 days postpartum and feeding sometimes takes over an hour. She seems hungry soon after as well. I cry because I want her well fed. Pumping also hurts and no one takes me seriously.
