Answer

Totally normal. Most people have one breast that is different. If you look at your own right and side, usually there are difference. It is normal to have one eye larger than other, one breast larger than other, one foor larger than other... Basically totally normal to have difference in the sides.

Answer

My doctor told me completely normal. My right boob produces more and I was concerned about even that nipple being different then my left nipple too but it’s fine 🤷🏻‍♀️ lol

Answer

One is the “stud” and one is the “dud”. It’s pretty common for one breast to produce more. Don’t stress over it. Keep pumping/feeding from both each feed

Answer

Its completely normal to have a “slacker boob”

Answer

Totally normal, I’ve had a slacker boob each time, though it switched with my kids. I’m curious to see which ones the slacker this time around

Answer

Tried to do "reverse pressure softening" before latching baby on? There's videos on YouTube on how to do it. Pumping makes the edema/engorgement worse. 
And yes it's all normal to have a slacker side.
