Thread: Refusing Left Breast - Help Please!

Started 4 months, 1 week ago by MrsBop
Mailie has always had a love/hate relationship with the left breast and much prefers the right one and when hungry thats the one she lunges for lol!

Thanks hun, I did try that earlier but she'd worked herself up so it didn't work, I'll try that from the go next feed though and see if she can be fooled lol little devil.

They're such funny little things, when she was first born it was the left one she prefered!

Try to express from your left breast to keep up the supply. Then it doesn't matter if she only feeds from the right side. Emily is the same, she'll only feed from the left if shes starving hungry. Odd things, babies. My #1 preferred the left, this one prefers the right!
