Milk Supply Problem...Is something wrong?
Posted On 12/12/2007 16:59:52 by jader

I have a daughter, 17 months old and I breastfeed her. I have a milk supply issue for the past couple of months. My right side always is full of milk and the left seems to never let down. I have tried everything I know to "even" things out, with no success. It is at the point now that my daughter refuses to nurse on the left side at times.

Has anyone had this happen to them? I am concerned something may be wrong with me, since the left/problem side was getting blocked at least once every couple weeks until my daughter was 12 months.

 

Thanks for any comments!

my left side makes very little, no matter what i've tried. Joe is only 5 wks and often uses the left like a binky, i've also noticed that my left is the side that leaks. i understand the frustration, the feeling lopsided. keep trying, given time things may even out.

First feed her the right..... then switch sides during the middle & return to the right
