Find Lactation Consultant Jobs in New York, NY

1 month old - During breastfeeding, he feeds off for sometime and then suddenly pulls off and starts crying. Sometimes he is able to latch back but most of the times it's difficult to latch him back on. I do burp him in between but that doesn't seem to help. His pediatrician said it can be the muscles in his jaws that aren't working well or a latch issue. This started happening around Sept 8.

I'm 10 weeks postpartum and breastfeeding and pumping. I've recently experienced a significant decrease in my milk supply, mostly in my right breast. I've been consistently pumping every three hours (even after I nurse) in hopes to get my supply back up. Despite these efforts my output has remained fairly low (1-3 ounces per session at best). I'm looking for in-person help identifying the issue and helping rebuild my supply and hopefully getting to a place where I can nurse again without needing to give a bottle after.

I’m due with my second baby on 10/22. I’m delivering at Greenwich Hospital, and working with midwives from Northeast Medical Group in Stamford. My goal is an unmedicated birth with minimal interventions. My daughter was born in May 2025 in NYC. I went into labor at 39 weeks. I had a doula and made it to 6cm unmedicated, and opted for the epidural as I had been awake for over 24 hours and needed rest. Things progressed quickly from there and I had an uncomplicated vaginal birth. This time I’m hoping for a faster labor and to not need the epidural. I breastfed my daughter for 11 months and would have liked to go longer if I hadn’t been pregnant. The beginning was very challenging because of flat nipples. I primarily pumped until she started latching at 6 weeks, and things were relatively smooth from there. I’m hoping for an easier start to breastfeeding this time. I am a stay at home mom so hope to breastfeed for at least a year with minimal pumping. I know I will need early lactation support to achieve this. I’m looking to spend less than $2500 for a birth doula, and hope insurance will cover some. I’m looking for someone who will be very hands on in labor, and help me to labor at home as long as possible.

Looking for an at home lactation consultant to help with breastfeeding

My right breast has nearly stopped producing milk. It’s producing about .5 oz. My breast is definitely starting to get heavier and there are some hard spots. I’ve tried using my Spectra and Willow Go but both produce the same output. My right is my weakest compared to my left but this is definitely a new low

Two week old unable to latch due to inverted nipples. Latches with shield but gives up in a few minutes. Unable to build supply after pumping at least 8 times a day. I pump out 5 ml per session from one breast and a few drops from other. I pump at 12am, then 2-3 am and then at 7am to keep up with night pumps. I’m eating munchkin brand lactation cookies, drinking 1.5 L water and a glass of milk in addition to 2-3 meals. I want to be able to provide baby with some breast milk but not able to. Would like an insurance covered visit to my home for a consult.
