Baby won't feed from right boob

[squirrel999]

Help, Baby won't feed from my right boob, its getting massive and I'm going to have to express soon of she doesn't take any. She is 4 months old and currently screaming her head off with her daddy, she hasn't been feeding well at all today/ I have a bad cold and have been taking beechams and we both had thrush for a while but I think we've got rid of it. Also she used to have colic, thats seems to have cleared though tonight it looks like it is back! Any other reason why she won't feed from my right boob?

I have had that problem too! The HV suggested i turn baby round so she thinks she is feeding from her preferred side but actually isnt - does that make sense

Can you feed her in the underarm position so her head and mouth are in the same position as she is on the left boob?

try feeding her lying down or feeding her from her fav first and then the one she doesn't like

you have my sympathy, ds is doing this for the last couple of months and it's getting worse. i'm seriously having to contemplate one sided feeding if he keeps it up much longer as the amount i can trick him into drinking from that side every day is miniscule. (he's hooouuuge so underarm not a good option for us)
