Only feeding from one breast

[buzzgirly]

My ds is now 3 weeks old, and after a rocky start we have managed to breastfeed(after some support from here - thanks!). Ds seems to prefer one breast to the other, and guzzles on it but when I put him to other side he has a few sucks and falls asleep. Will the milk dry out on the other side that isn't being used? Will I end up with lopsided breasts? I am still trying to express for side that is used so much to keep milk up.

Any advice would be brilliant - thanks!

Yes, if your ds continues not to be that keen on one breast, the milk will dwindle and then in time disappear....but this is not a Big Deal :) Most mothers can probably make sufficient milk for one baby with just one 'active' breast.

Short term you will be somewhat lop-sided; medium term it evens out; long term it will not be noticeable at all.

Good idea to check he is thriving, after his tricky start, by ensuring he's gaining weight ok and developing as he should....then once you are happy with this, you prob don't need to think about it much at all (or express).
