Ladies,

Sorry - another "is this normal?" question. I have been pumping for about a month now and find my left breast consistently producing much more milk than my right. I am talking about a lot more - just now had mere drops on the right and almost half an ounce on the left and this seems to happen regularly.

Anything to be done about this?

Love,
Chris

That's very normal. When I was pumping, my left always had a faster letdown, but my right would always pump significantly more. I think it's pretty common for one breast to out-produce the other.
