8 week old fussy at left boob!

Wondering if any of u ladies have experienced this! Have had no end of problems with breastfeeding, but we're still going and things are a lot better.

But last 2-3 days phoebe has been struggling on the left side! She struggled as a newborn as i had an inverted nipple but she seems to have drawn it out now. She keeps popping off after about 5 sucks, then she roots and latches and then pops off again!!

Usually use cradle hold or laid back. Not too good at laying side by side but keep giving it a go.

Is this just a case of having a favourite side???

Thanks for any advice!!

When my girl did that I tried the "rugby ball" hold with her tucked under my arm. It fooled her into thinking he was in the side she liked.
