Hi everyone...ok, so my LO is only 9 1/2 months, but he's not an infant anymore so I figured this was the place to post, but I am cross-posting in Breastfeeding Issues as well.
In any event, I am having some big problems these days. My left breast makes nearly 3 times as much as my right breast...is that normal? I just went to the car to pump (I'm at work) and I got 7 oz. out of the left size and only 2 oz. out of the right. I think I *might* have a clogged duct on the right side, but it has always produced less. Now it is just at an all time extreme low. I'm ordering all the herbal supplements to try and increase, but I'm concerned that my left side is going to flood me out!! When I woke up this morning, my left side was probably a DDD and my right a B...that is how bad it is getting.
Also, my "clog" is feeling like a really deep bruise, but I can't feel the lump like I have been able to with past clogged ducts. I've tried to work it out with massage and heat, but it is really hard to do if I can't find the lump. Anyone else been through something like this?? Any advice??? I'm getting really desperate (and scared).
Thanks mamas!!
