I have a forceful let down and LO chokes and gulps while feeding and ends up with a lot of gas. I have been block feeding/offering only one breast per feeding and also changed the position I use to nurse him (starting side lying and laid back nursing). It doesn't seem to be helping much. I met with a LC who advised me against feeding on one breast only. She said doing that can cause a higher incidence of mastitis and blocked ducts. Is this true?
As I posted below, she suggest I fed 3-4minutes on 1st breast, 3-4minutes on second then back to first to finish. She said I should never feed from one breast only.
