Bad boob?

Occasionally LO decides she just doesn't like my one boob - usually the right. She'll be merrily chomping away and then suddenly she spits it out and starts crying. I know she hasn't finished.

    The reason I want to blame teething is that our nurse said t

    Sorry we were not able to give you any helpful information. But, I do strongly agree with Cbeanz that if you favour that side, you'll lose the other.  If your LO will not drink from the one side, then at least pump it!
