One bigger than the other.. :(

Hi Guys.

From the title you might have guest it... Yep one of my boob's is bigger than the other at the mo, I have tried to make it even I mean that I alternate between the two but LO prefers my right one which seems HUGE compared to my left one- and its noticible. I havent got the smallest of boobs, im currently 38DD but I havent been measured since started BF so Im not sure what size I actually Am.

I have been told that its not advisable to express before 6weeks. So I am not sure what I can do to get my boobies even again.

Also I get achy boobs too and sometimes it can really hurt...

I need some advice please if anyone has any??

Thanks xx

Found this:
Once you and your baby seem to have things all figured out, begin to nurse more on the smaller breast. The extra nursing will tell your body to produce more milk on that side.
Begin and end each feeding on that side for about a week. Then nurse each side equally for a day. This should bring things back into balance.

The girls have given you the same advice that I would have about the evening out thing. Make sure that you don't over feed on the one side trying to balance it out as that will cause it to become worse. For the discomfort try having a warm shower. I used to just hand express a bit out in the shower to let off some of the pressure.
