My milk supply for both side is uneven. Right side is 4-5oz and left side is 1oz or less than that. I have tried to nurse my LO at my right breast first than only change to left for 2 months. But until now still the same. My LO has less and less patient on my right breast. What should I do?

You can also try: - nursing on the lower supply side twice as often (i.e. nurse on the left side for two feedings, the right for one feeding) - pump the lower supply side for 5-10mins after some feedings - add in an extra pumping session each day for the lower supply side You can refer to this article for more information: http://sg.theasianparent.com/causes-breastfeeding-women-milk-one-breast-can/ It is quite a common issue. Try having the addition pumping session if your baby is getting impatient. If it doesn't really bother you and your baby is getting enough to drink, you can actually just leave it be. Don't be too stressed over it. Hang in there!!
