Baby only eating off one side

so LO has been mostly ebf since birth. She is 18 days old. She has a tt and ult that was reversed last Thursday so we had to re learn how to latch. She is doing very well and had been taking both sides during a feeding. Most of today she has only taken one side. She comes off breast content and is peeing and pooping fine but is this a normal age for her to only want one side in a feeding? I didn't breast feed my first very long due to her having allergies so this is new to me! Thanks in advance ladies

Re: Baby only eating off one side

  • My lo is 19 days old and always nurses on one side per feed. I was told it's ok either way, as long as diaper count is good

  • I only feed on one side. She isn't hungry when she's done feeding so it's all good:)
  • I know this isn't exactly you're question but my LO will almost ONLY feed off the left boob. For some reason he just doesn't like the right, from everything I've read it's fine. It just makes me look a little lopsided lol
  • My DD has been feeding off of one side since the first week. She also only eats for about 6-10 minutes. The pedi says it's perfectly fine since she has been gaining weight and producing sufficient diapers.
  • My lo is 6 wks and has ever only done 1 side per feed. Totally normal!
