my left breast is about half a cup to a whole cup size bigger than my right breast.  its always been more engorged too.  anyone else in a similar boat or have any idea why

and in case i havent mentioned it yet on this board, please forgive my lack of capitalization, punctuation, and formatting in my posts...ive been posting from my phone which wont let me use the caps lock on the bump

    i too am on my phone so i rarely capitalize and stuff so no judgement here.

    my left boob has always been bigger than the right prepregnancy and now its even more noticeable. i dont know why but i have just accepted it haha.

    It's normal for one breast to produce more milk or be larger than the other.

    Same here. Left is bigger. After pumping I found that the right produces about half as much milk. I started feeding LO first on the right, sometimes only on the right (his choice, after being full). I figure the baby will be more efficient at getting out breastmilk and increasing production on that side (vs a pump), which has happened. 

    But it's still smaller. Oh, well. I think I'm the only one who really notices.

    thanks for not judging...i hate not using proper punctuation and whatnot so ive been feeling super irked by it lol.  at least i can still bump from my phone.  

    and come to think of it, one used to be slightly bigger than  the other pp, but i never paid it much attention.  maybe that has something to do with it

    thats a good idea.  ive been feeding two times in a row on the right after long feedings on the left to try to even things out
