Awkward question..

in Breastfeeding
I feed DS equally on both sides but for some reason my left breast has grown and my right has not. Is this a common issue with EBFing? I would not normally mind but were talking a full 2 cup size difference.

    My right breast is significantly larger than my left. It also makes more milk. I hear that this is pretty common.

    Well I am glad that others are going through this as well. But I wish that it was not so noticeable! I am heavily lop sided lol!

    Same but on my left side

    Same here...they did start to even out a little as time went on, but if I haven't pumped/nursed in awhile you can still really tell.

    2 years, 2 surgeries, 2 clomid fails, 2 IUIs, 1 loss, IVF #1 - 10/25/10 = BFP!, DS is now 3.5yrs!
    TTC #2 - 6/12 surgery #3, FET #1 & 1.2 = BFN, 12/2012 FET #2 = BFP! DD is 1.5 yrs!
    Surprise! 12/16/14 BFP, loss #2 12/31/14

    I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929

    My left is definitely bigger... DH always makes fun of me haha. I've tried to favor the right so maybe it will catch up in size, which has worked some, but I think the left will always dominate :-p

    My left is definitely the over-achiever.  My LO refused the right for about 2 months, and I slacked on pumping it some.  I've tried to get better about pumping it, but it only gives me 1-1.5 oz. per session, and I get 4-6 oz. easy from lefty.  I'm a solid D on my left, and barely a C on my right :/  My friends and family say it's not so noticeable unless I point it out.  It's definitely awkward and noticeable to me though.

    My left is also the over-achiever. .  both in size and output. 

    I wondered if it's because I'm right handed and also sleep on my right side/stomach and smush that one. (Oh and the right never gets engorged but leaks at the drop of the hat, yet the left just gets engorged)

    Same here! My left is way bigger, also more than a cup size, and it makes about twice as much. I'm told it's not only normal, but common, which PPs seem to verify.
