Always took 2 boobs, now wants 1...?

What's up?

DD has always taken both breasts at a feeding, yesterday and today she SCREAMS and pulls away after like 2 min on the 2nd side.

Why would she be doing this? Could she be full?

Just now I pumped afterwards and got .5oz from the 1st side and 2.5oz from the 2nd....

Thoughts?

    My DS did this around 8 weeks and has been that way since. I believe that it is normal!

    My LO does this now, too.

    Whenever I NIPed with friends around, I'd always get a "why does she eat from both sides?" comment. That leads me to believe that it's fairly normal for babies to start only taking on side.

    Also, in my own little home investigation, last night I pumped the side that she was due to eat from and got 5.5 oz. So, that shed some light on why she wasn't interested in more.
