Screaming at breast

My LO recently started fussing and crying while eating from my right breast. As soon as I switch her to my left she is fine. What could be wrong? The flow has become too fast? She also hasn't pooped in 5 days which is a first but she is happy otherwise.

Help!

Re: Screaming at breast

  • DS did the same with me for about a week, but at my left breast. I nursed him sitting up on that side and he responded much better. Not sure what caused it but it seems to have resolved itself.
  • My LO did that with the left for about a week at around 3 months. It was weird, as that was the side he preferred before that. As pp also said, I tried a different position (for me it was side-lying). He got over it eventually too.
