My daughter is almost 6 weeks an since day one she has only fed off of my right boob. I want to be able to build a stach in my freezer but now my left boob doesn't produce any. Any advice on how to start getting it to produce?

    The best way is get her to nurse on that side. Why is she resistant? If she doesn't like laying on her opposite side and you're using cradle/cross cradle hold, try football, so she can stay laying on her favored side - does that make sense? If she is still struggling, then pump that side 8 times per day or more. If you can, pump the one side while she eats on the other side. Tricky but doable with a hands-free pumping bra.
