one boob or both?

[mernie]

I don't understand! Sometimes Brianna will eat off of both boobs about 10-15 minutes on each one but other times she'll eat for 20 off of one and just doesn't want the other one period! Is this ok or should I try harder to get her to take the second boob? she always seems to have her fill but I know they say that they should eat off of both of them at a feeding. I just hope I'm not doing something wrong by allowing her to feed off of only one when it seems that what she wants.

I think it's fine. She'll feed as much as she wants. Harry does this sometimes. He'll "snack" in the day - having only smallish feeds off one boob. Then sometimes he'll completely empty both boobs completely!

Brenn was the same at that age. I would always offer the 2nd one, sometimes he wanted it and others he didn't.

Your doing fine. They take what they want. I always offered both sometimes Ellie didnt want both either.

i was always lop sided with my supply. So LO always spent more on one side. Your body will adjust to what LO wants. I've given up on little lefty altogether now..
