In the morning at my first pump, I sometimes got 9-10 oz from my right side alone and only 6 from my left side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uneven-milk-production#post-2099142 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 16:25:20 +0000 jape14 2099142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have always produced more from my right side. In my morning pump at work, I usually get 6-7 oz from the right and 1-2 from the left. My theory is it's because I got mastitis in my left side a week after he was born, but who knows why! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uneven-milk-production#post-2099107 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 15:46:56 +0000 MrsF 2099107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always get more from my left side when I pump. J only takes one side at a time though, so my right must make plenty too. Glad to hear the unevenness is normal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uneven-milk-production#post-2099104 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 15:43:43 +0000 bhbee 2099104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My left used to produce about 2x my right. I could never even them out and eventually my roght just dried up (as she dropped sessions) so then it was really uneven!<br /> This baby seems to be evening them out more since he prefers the slow flow side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uneven-milk-production#post-2099102 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 15:41:51 +0000 daniellemybelle 2099102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep - very common. I have always produced twice as much on my left side. As long as you are producing enough overall, don't worry about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uneven-milk-production#post-2099073 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 14:44:14 +0000 My Only Sunshine 2099073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No matter what I did, I got more from my left side. Like at least twice as much when I pumped at work. I think it's pretty common. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uneven-milk-production#post-2099035 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 13:40:26 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2099035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, very normal. Try and switch which side you start on each time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uneven-milk-production#post-2099033 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 13:33:54 +0000 Canoli 2099033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always produced more out of my left side. I think it's common. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uneven-milk-production#post-2099025 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 13:09:21 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2099025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Holy cow. I think my boobs are producing unevenly! I fed him on the right side at 915, and the left not since 745. And I just pumped at 10 and the r got 3 ounces and the l only 0.5. I also noticed in the shower the r is noticeably bigger. Should I try to use the left more? He normally eats both sides every feeding. </p>
