One side of breast not yielding as much as the other

Hi all, I’m 16 days postpartum, and exclusively pumping. However realised that lately my right boob is yielding 10-20ml per pumping session compared to the first few days while the other is yielding 80-100ml, is this normal? Also when letdown happen I can only feel it on the heavy yielding boob instead of both boobs. Is this normal too?

Hi, I’ve been having sharp shooting pain on my boobs lately, is this normal too? It’s not engorgement kind of pain, they’re just sharp pain. Breastfeeding is so hard, I feel like giving up each day 😭

hi mummy! you are still early in your pp so milk supply is not yet stable. but you may also want to check of the flange size for the other boob is correct.
