It has pros & cons on having more milk. Pros : One of your breast is more hardworking than another, same like mine. My righty is working way harder than my lefty. Even 1 times more milk than the another. But combine, its enough for my boy. I would pump longer on my other side, to try make it a little more hardworking. Cons : If your baby want to drink from the less hardworking boob, your hardworking boob will be engorged & painful. From my experience. Best to just latch from one side per feed & not switch as you want your baby to get the hindmilk which has a higher fat contents. Its really a headache on what you should do. But don't over do it too. Oversupply mum that have to pump every 2-3 hours could drain a lot of time & energy out of you.
