One Breast produces less Milk than the other Breast
Hi Helen

My baby girl does not seem to get enough milk when feeding from my left breast, as she tends to get hungry sooner than when she feeds from my right breast.

I have tried to express milk from both breasts, the right breast gives approx. 100 ml and the left gives only 20 ml ...

Is it normal to produce less milk from one breast than from the other? What can you recommend me to do?

Best regards
Kristina
