Dd MUCH prefers my left side, and im convinced that side is going to look bigger then the other HOW do i get her to take to the other side too? before i look lop-sided! lol

Ds hated my right side and would only feed from it if rugby balled!
From unscientific straw poll of my frineds, pretty normal.

Really! lol, i find it so strange how such a little teeny person can have such a stubborn preference lol, will try the rugby thing then perhaps, thanks

Yes, mine had a distinct preference for my left side. I suspect it might have been partly due to me being right handed and so I was more comfortable/natural when cradling her in my left arm.

From about 7 months I always offered the right side first in a big to encourage her to feed more evenly, but to be honest I am a bit lopsided. We've just finished BFing at 10.5 months so I will be curious to see if things even out.

my DS has a preference for the right side, so the opposite to the rest of your DCs! again, will only take from the left in a rugby ball hold (although will occasionally take from the left in a cradle hold if he feels so inclined)
