I need lactation support Help with breastfeeding, weight gain

Wondering if my baby is getting enough milk while I breastfeed. Also, looking for ways to increase my milk.

I am looking to be proactive in my breastfeeding journey with my second baby due at the end of May. I would like to find an IBCLC local to the Grand Rapids, MI area that works with Priority Health Insurance.

I’m currently experiencing a dip in my milk supply and I’m not sure what else to do to increase it. I’ve been exclusively pumping as my baby wont latch to me anymore and even with power pumping once a day I can’t seem to increase my supply to make enough for what my baby eats, which is about 4 oz of milk every 2 hours. I’m wondering if I could get some extra advice on what to do or maybe see if I’m doing something wrong or if I can take something to increase my supply. My goal is to pump breastmilk until my baby is 1 year old.

I need help with my 2 month old refusing to take a bottle.

Baby girl was premature, born at 35 weeks and we haven’t been able to latch without a nipple shield. She will nurse with it for over an hour and still act hungry so I am also unsure how much she is getting. I give her breast milk through a bottle 90% of the time.

I plan to give birth at the hospital in Hastings Michigan. I am not sure what the cost is. I don't know what to budget for. I plan to have a natural birth, no pain medication, no induction. I want delayed cord cleaning and no pokes for baby unless absolutely necessary.

I am 4 weeks postpartum and an under supplier. As suggested by my pediatrician, we have switched to exclusive pumping, I pump every 2 hours and only produce a combined 1oz per pump.

My hope is to be able to breastfeed my first baby coming this August. I know very little about breastfeeding, and the women in my family have not breastfed so do not know how to offer support. I want to be as prepared as possible to be successful in this journey, so I’d love to possibly find a lactation consultant.

Trying to relactate to feed my baby. I struggled in the past to produce milk and formula isn’t settling well with him.

I am a first time mom seeking a doula to assist with birth, postpartum care and lactation if needed. I plan to deliver at a hospital either Memorial or St. Joesph Hospital.

My baby and I are struggling with breastfeeding, latching in particular. I have been pumping to maintain my supply. However, she gets extremely frustrated every time we try to latch. Sometimes she will latch for a few short seconds and then stops and gets frustrated again.

Having a hard time getting my 6 day old baby to eat. He seems to suck and no milk come out a majority of the time, i have tried 5 different bottles and none of them really seem to make a difference. He was eating about 30-35 ml a feeding then yesterday around 7 he would not feed it went on all night and he woke up starving, he ate 50 ml of milk. I’ve tried to feed him again because he seemed fussy and ready to eat and he sucked on the bottle but barely any milk came out again. I’m just worried about him and really want to get him eating a higher amount of of milk and would love some advice.

I have seen a LC before and am looking to work with someone again. I have some general questions, including about pumping and some other things, right now I EBF but will return to work in January. I am scheduling due to increasing pain. The latch is painful and sometimes I get a shooting pain, but now I have a new worrisome pain that happens in my right even when I’m not breastfeeding. Also I believe he has a shallow latch. I have blue cross blue shield.
