I'll try not to ramble but a couple of queries to try and improve our bf.
DS 9 weeks, following 75th centile so not worried about his intake as such. BF on demand which was every 3 hours but now upped to 2-2.5 (normal I know). I have a tendancy towards oversupply, and a fast letdown. DS only ever feeds for 5 mins, never falls asleep on the boob either
ok, so left boob is being useless! I have always found feeding much easier from the right but have been concious not to use it more often. The last couple of days my left nipple has been getting a bit sore, not excruciating, just feels a bit grazed. No previous pain with bf. Left nipple is much smaller than right and I have massive norks so latching is really hard - have tried lots of positions, nothing helps. It is worse at night as tryng to feed with less light/tired me/tired DS.
My question is does it matter if I don't feed from the left during the night (DS usually feeds at about 10.30pm, 2am, 4am, 6am at the moment, was only 10.30pm, 2.30am, 5.30am)or would this effect supply too much? Could I pump from the left during the night instead? (PITA tho) Or would it be the end of the world if I only ever fed from the right?? DS never ever takes both boobs at a feed anyway- has sicked it up on the rare occasion he has.
I am trying to make the bf experience better for my DS who seems to be an unhappy little man a lot of the time which I think is due to wind/colic and this fussing at the left breast is making that worse. I know I should be grateful to have a quick feeder etc but I'd be happy to be feeding him for longer/more often if only it would actually comfort him. But it just seems to make him sick/arch/cry as if in pain so I am presuming he is getting some reflux. He takes a dummy to comfort suck 
. This crying starts early afternoon and gets worse with each feed until he falls asleep for the night, no crying/wind/sick etc during the night.
