Breastfeeding

Baby rejects one side

My 3-day-old DD is starting to latch like a champ to my right breast, but she gets so mad when I try to put her to the left one. My left nipple is very flat and even if I pump first to draw it out, she will try to grab it once then pulls off. I've tried different holds in case she prefers to lay to one side.

The past two feedings today, I've let her feed on the right while I pumped on the left. Not sure what else to do. She did fine in the hospital with the nurses' and LC's help. Any ideas what I can do?
