I sure wish my right side could share the load of milk production with my left as she is doing all the work! Sheā€™s has her days where she is ambitious but for the most part just lazy :unamused_face:

Okay righty! Itā€™s time for you to step up lazy girl!:joy:

Am I guessing correctly that your son prefers to nurse from the right side, and maybe thatā€™s why it produces less? I know thatā€™s the case for me

Thatā€™s absolutely correct he prefers to nurse from the left I still make him give ol right side some attention just to wake her up from her slumber :joy:

My girl plops into my lap for righty, and itā€™s a battle to get her on the other side. The struggle is real

The struggle is real! He gagged when he tried my other and I swear heā€™s just being dramatic or funny because he laughed right after that hahah

Oh my goodness! Thatā€™s too funny! Mine does the gagging thing too. I think that means the milk is coming out too fast.

One thing you can do is lay down and have your baby lay on top of you to nurse. That way gravity is helping prevent it from coming out as fast. It feels so weird at first, but you get used to it

How do you keep baby from not smooshing their face??? I have kinda tried it on accident and he seems to always faceplant and Iā€™m scared he canā€™t breathe

You just have to get their head to tilt to the side a little bit. And if thereā€™s suction going on, he can breathe. I used to get nervous about that and still do sometimes. Then Iā€™m like oh wait, she wouldnā€™t be able to nurse if she couldnā€™t breathe. Just be careful not to fall asleep

Ohhhh I guess thatā€™s a good point !! But he likes holds his breath and then comes up for air like heā€™s diving under water or something! But like you said maybe i can get him to tilt his head a bit! Thats great advice

Oh no! Thatā€™s scary that heā€™s holding his breath like that! But yeah, as long as one nostril is uncovered enough to get a little air, he will be able to breath ok

Okay Iā€™m going to give it a shot! Heā€™s been really into just rolling around and being wild while feeding so hopefully I can get him to stay in one spot :sob:
