Adventures of SuperBoob and SlackerBoob

My boobs are so weird.  We went to the LC (again) and she weighed before and after BF.  Zoe got 60ml on the left in 10 minutes and 10ml on the right in 15 minutes.  I pumped that same morning and got 70ml on left and 10ml on the right.  WTF?!

I know it's normal to have some difference between the sides but even the LC was baffled at the discrepancy!  So they have been dubbed SuperBoob and SlackerBoob in an attempt to keep my sense of humor about my ongoing BF challenges.

Anybody else have a total loser boob or am I the only freak?

  • I can get 5 ounces or more from my right side when I pump for 15 minutes, and I'm lucky to get 2 ounces from my left (not a "total loser boob," but still).  It's frustrating!

  • Yepper- 4-5 from my right and 1-2 ozs from my left.  Left side= slackerboob.

  • I rarely pump, so I'm unsure of actual output, but DD eats way better off my right than my left. If nothing else I think my let down is waaay slower on my left boob.

  • I always get more out of my right boob.  If I've recently feed C off the right, I get the same amount out of both.  I get ~1-2oz from the left, so not total slacker, but still way less than the 3+ I usually get from the right. 

    I know size doesn't have anything to do with milk production, but my right's always been slightly larger than my left.

    When I was pumping I would get a good 50-60 ML from the right side and lefty-loo would only give me about 20 ML.

  • Well, it's good to know I'm not a total freak and to just roll with it!  BF is so weird.

  • I get less out of one compared to the other... not as crazy as yours! Good Luck!

  • Mine are horrible and have been from the beginning. I couldn't even get 1/2 oz out of the right, while I was getting 2-3 oz from the left size. Now I am getting 5 oz from the left and maybe 1 oz from the right. Not to mention, they look ridiculous! The left is like twice as big.
