Home Forums Induced Lactation aka Adoptive Breastfeeding Medical Interventions to Induce Lactation/Increase Milk Supply Uneven development

Well, I'm on day 16 and I guess I'm doing ok. I'm coping with the slow digestion problem with a dose of citrucel every night but this week I seem to have a new problem. My right breast has changed a lot. It's much bigger and the veins are prominent. My left breast however is lagging. It is only slightly bigger than before I started the protocol. Will things even out? Is there anything I can do to help my left breast along? It is very noticable without my clothes on but is only just beginning to notice with a bra and shirt on. Has anyone else had this problem? And if so what did you do?

Hello Vanessa,

Same thing happened to me. It evened out fairly quickly. I don't think you need to do anything about it. Breast development can be rather erratic. You may find your breast shrinking a little, then growing again also- nothing to worry about.
