he will not watch. He prefers a bottle and we would like to breast-feed instead of pump and bottle feed.

I’m looking for a doula and postpartum doula. I’m giving birth in a hospital I would like the doula to have at least 5 years of experience. I would also like to know if your company excepts insurance to determine my out of pocket cost and my estimated budget is $1000-1500.

Want to make sure baby is eating enough with good transfer

I'm looking into having a doula along for my third birth. My first two labor experiences were straightforward with a few hiccups, but I'm looking for more flexibility and agency this time around. I plan to labor at the hospital and am open to an epidural or not depending on how I'm feeling in the moment. I'd like to retain movement as long as I can tolerate it. I don't have a budget in mind right now, I'm beginning the research process.

baby was able to go without a nipple shield for the most part using one maybe once a day but now refuses to latch on the right without a shield and will only sometimes latch on the left without a shield and I have no idea why

I have been exclusively pumping for 8 months with an oversupply. I pump around 55-60 oz a day and started to wean then hit major pain and discomfort. I used to pump 6 times a day every 3 hours in a 24 hour period for 30 minutes then I dropped to 25 minutes every session then 4 days later dropped to 20 minutes then 4 days later dropped to 15 minutes. Then 4 days later I switched to 5 pumps in 24hours with 5 hours in between pumps and that’s when I start experiencing major pain. My right side produces more than my left and I started to get clogged ducts which then led to my milk getting stuck behind my nipple and causing major sharp shooting pains, inflammation and redness. My OB prescribed me 2 different antibiotics for mastitis because they weren’t sure what was causing it and those didn’t work and then I went and got an ultrasound on my breast and they didn’t find anything irregular. I’ve experienced this paid for 2 weeks and haven’t continued to wean since so currently I am pumping every 5 hours for 20 minutes and getting between 50-55oz a day. I’ve noticed everytime I get a clogged duct which it’s the same spot everytime that’s when I start to get the really awful nipple pain. I am trying to figure out how to wean to avoid further pain and clogged ducts. I am taking sunflower lecithin and I have ordered Cabo crème. Sorry if this was a lot but I’d like someone who is educated in weaning from pumping with someone who has an oversupply and gets clogged ducts often.
