lopsided- what do I do?

indylardelli · November 2015

the last 2 weeks I havnt been able to get hardly any milk from my right boob it's noticeably a lot smaller and I can only ever pump 1oz sometimes not even that much,

but from my left side I can get atleast 5oz from not even 5 minutes pumping every 3-4 hours

how do I increase supply on just one side? I try pump the right side as much as I can but its still not helping

I actually read that many women produce more on the right side. You're honestly not alone. If I get 1oz on the left, I get 2.5 oz's on the right.

I have lopsided boobs as well but I think that's because everything on my left side is slightly bigger than things on my right side (old wives tale based on the story of Adam and Eve)

Regarding supply - I came across these blog posts that were helpful to me and will hopefully be to you as well: https://community.babycenter.com/post/a60145465?scid=ddigest_body https://www.theboobgeek.com/blog/6-things-to-do-if-your-pumping-output-drops.html https://www.theboobgeek.com/blog/hands-pumping.html https://www.theboobgeek.com/blog/why-you-wont-hear-me-suggest-galactogogues.html Good luck!
