Breastfeeding refusal

my 4 month old recently started refusing one boob, which I hear is fairly common. However, she now takes the side she previous refused and has started to refuse the previously preferred side. No rhyme or reason too it, she’s not unwell and no sore ears as far as I’m aware. Should I just ride it out and hope it resolves itself over time . I have tried all different positions. Is it simply just a case of baby doing her own thing ?

Just keep offering both and maybe pump / hand express in the mean time to prevent engorgement. These things are always just a phase. They are usually a bit more compliment when sleepy so perhaps go out your way to offer the non preferred side at night time /before or after naps.
