Breast

Any advice please mamas I’ve noticed for a couple days now my left boob is getting engorged (big) and I have no clue why my right boob is almost flat like a pancake.. I do breast feed my 1 year old but this has never happened ever during our feeding journey even with my daughter 3 years ago. So I don’t get why it’s happening should I be worried?? I’ve been sitting here crying cause I hate how my body is looking espically my boobs I can’t wear anything without noticing one boob is bigger and you can tell 😭 why is this happening!! Left boob has always been the favourite boob for my little one even while it’s been getting hard and big he feeds well off it and still gets hard not long after..

I went through the same thing feeding my baby, I cried so long thinking my body was forever messed up and comparing myself 😭 I consulted my lactation nurse and she explained that it’s natural especially if the babies have a favorite boob or you sleep on that boob more.your body is producing more milk on that side, keeping up with demand lol. She said they’ll go back to normal which mine did after I stopped breastfeeding. I know the change is a lot on our bodies and we can’t help but to feel a certain way about it ofc🫂but we also have to remind ourselves how strong our bodies and mentally we are to create food for our babies🫶 be kind to yourself mama 🩷 some tips I was given was feeding my baby on the smaller boob, or pump on the smaller bob after or before breastfeeding, sleep on the smaller boob more

@María Thankyou mama x Just confused as it’s never happened before and his over 1 years old I don’t pump as I can’t get anything out unfortunately. This is just a few days thing I’ve been dealing with hoping it’ll just stop and go back to letting me have my pancake boobs hahaha. 🤣

I didn’t pump anything out of the other boob but still keep doing it so the supply comes in bc it’s trick your brain into producing more milk on that side too🩷
