never latched at birth and was put in the nicu immediately following birth where he drank from a bottle consistently. has had trouble latching since then and has not been breastfed at all since birth. takes a bottle no problem and has a “mild” tongue tie according to doctors. just looking for someone to physically help me latch my 3 week old son. hoping to find someone covered under cigna insurance

I plan to give birth at Inova Hospital in Annandale, VA. I don’t have an estimated budget I want to try to go all natural. A holistic, Christian Doula. Teach me how to breastfeed. Tricare Select is my insurance.

Second baby due in September. With my first born (dec 2024) I could only successfully latch him for a few days, after returning from the hospital we used the nipple shield to help him latch and used it for a month before completely switching to exclusively pumping. Continued to pump for 10 months before milk slowly dried out. I want to be prepared this time on how to get baby to latch especially if I want to combo feed breastmilk through pumping and through breastfeeding.

Combo feeding Medication knowledge Feeding, positions , latching

I need a lactation consultant to evaluate my baby’s oral function. He still has a shallow latch despite a frenectomy for his tongue and lip tie. We have been evaluated by lactation peer counselors and doulas who have helped with suck training and positioning. Breastfeeding is still painful for me despite all these efforts. I would like to meet with a certified lactation consultant in person for help with this.

Lactation help - want to breastfeed

I’m looking for a lactation consultant to help with my 1-month-old son. We are struggling with breastfeeding due to latch issues. I have been pumping to bottle-feed him, and I am now experiencing painful clogged ducts in my left breast that feel hard as a rock. Do you have any availability to help us this week?

I am 35 years old and this is my first baby. I need help with increasing milk supply.

I have inverted nipples and need help understanding how to breastfeed and how it works.

I had a recent dip in supply. I was overly supplying and now I only get about 3oz total each pump.

Plan to give birth at gmbc; interested in birth and post-partum doulas

Help with breastfeeding. Baby is not staying latched. Might be milk transferring issues. Will latch in the morning but struggles in the afternoon. Would love to be able to exclusively breastfeed. I don't think i have the right flange for my pump and have been getting low outputs. Need help! I am apart of carefirst blue cross blue shield and would like for a 100% to be covered.

I am 26 years old and this is my first child so I would like someone to just give me advice and basically be there for me through this journey. I would like to give birth at a birthing center close to a hospital if I need to go to it, but I am not opposed to going to the hospital I just don't want to have the baby on my back. My budget is under $2,000 preferably. I also would like to try and breast feed to know what drinks or food I can intake now to help with that. I am also a picky eater so helping me come up with a balanced diet would also be a great help as well. I just would like to prep on what I should be doing each month and things I need to order so that I can already have it before the baby comes.

I am looking for a doula to have guidance on having a mother vaginal birth following a cesarean birth from my last pregnancy. I want to avoid that happening again and especially avoid that healing process I had to go through with my little boy.
