Breastfeeding Mama's: When your baby nurses do you give them both boobs or just one? my little girl falls asleep when nursing on one and my sister told me I'm supposed to wake her up and have her nurse on the other boob too because "she's not getting enough milk". but she's never breast feed so i don't really pay attention to her when she trys to give me advice on breastfeeding.

Just keep track of which one and alternate each feeding. I used to make logs with time of feeding L or R and the amount of minutes nursed that helped me keep track
Your supposed to try to but when I breastfed my son he had a "favorite side" as my lactation consultant called it and he would only nurse on my right and rarely on the left so I just pumped the left and gave it to him in a bottle so he ate enough. You could try that,pumping the other side that she didn't feed on.
I've breastfed for 8 months now and she's only ever eaten from both when she was a month old. Ever since then she's been preferential on which side she wants. They told me nurse for 15-20 minutes on each side but she would never want to eat for that long or from both. I just went with what my girl wanted...now I have one ginormous boob and one saggy boob from that decision (both still produce) 😂
you're supposed to try and offer both breasts. try and wake her up with a baby wipe to her feet and offer the other, but if you know she's getting plenty from one then I wouldn't worry too much. but maybe pump the other boob to keep the milk supply up?
Breastfeeding moms, when did you give baby a bottle? I was shooting for 6 weeks but being the only one waking up with her is really starting to bug me and make me resent my s/o.
Okay so my bff had her baby on January 30th, the baby was 7 pounds. When the baby turn 2 months he was 14 pounds. Now he's 3 months, my bf talking about he might be 20 pounds already smh lol. So my question is what type of milk she's giving her son smh cuz I want to know! lol sadly she's not telling me her secret 😏
My daughter was nursing and bit me is that normal she's 5 months
Can toddlers tell when you're about to give birth? Because Im at the end and going thru it but my one year old has been acting a FOOL with me!!! Shes just screaming and crying for no reason lately
My baby girl does not let me do anything all day 😭 I'm lucky if everything is done before my s.o gets home , she cried so I pick her up to feed her and change her diaper and once she's on my breast she eats and I burp her put her down and she'll cry I get her again and she's on my breast not even latched on just smelling my boobs 😭 I'm like girl really lmao she wants me to carry her or be with her all day , girl I wish I could lmao
With my first I only nursed on 1 side, I'd just remember which one to do the next feed. But I had a really good supply then. I have low supply this time because of breast reduction I had so I nurse on both sides in one feed now
