my baby only nurses on one side per feeding. I already started pumping for comfort. when I feed her on one side should I start pumping the other and rotate sides per feeding? I only pump until my let down slows down for the most part then I stop because I don't want to over produce. any comments about waiting to pump can be kept to yourself I talked to mine and her Dr and they both agreed it was okay for me to pump whenever I was ready to.

How old is she? I know my son would go to sleep as well and I would just pump... I have this suction thing that I use now and I pump one boob while he nurses on the other.
@lexij she'll be more alert soon. just pump when you can and rotate as needed. my LO eats from one side per feed.
i@khalil_mommy I rotate sides. she does fine on both and they usually hurt the same. she just nurses for 10 mins. and I've tried to switch at 5 mins but she usually falls asleep and won't relatch. I've tried everything to keep her away from tickles to striping her. nothing works. once she's out she's out. lol
I would probably feeding from both side and pump. That's what I do. But my son has a favorite boob as well. Do you try to fed from both sides and he just like one side? Or you feed from one side due to pain?
I second what @khalil_mommy said. That device helped me with the same issue and helped me store away some extra milk.
