Breastfeeding
Pumping amount different on each side?
My son is in the NICU and a few days ago, he was able to start nursing once a day. He wouldn't even latch on the right side, only the left. Today I finally got him to latch on the right side (yay!) and am able to nurse him at his designated feeding times anytime I am there.
I've noticed since I started feeding him from the left that my supply on the right side is not keeping up with the left. For instance, I just pumped and had 2 oz on the left and not quite 1.5 oz on the right. Is this normal/ok? I'm worried I've messed up my milk supply. Will getting him to eat more on that side help? Thanks!
