since yesterday my DD only wants to feed from the 1 side, every time i put her on the other she sucks for a couple of mins and turns away crying, i keep trying her on it but im justworried about my milk supply, she is 9 weeks old and we have never had this prob before?

Might she have a problem with one of her ears? An infection or something? It could be when she's turned on to one side it creates more pressure, which might hurt?

Sorry - the only thing I could think of! Good idea to contact your midwife or GP though.

could indeed be cold-related, either ears or blocked nose thats uncomfortable on that side. You could try feeding her under your arm on that side so she is more on the other side?
