Uneven milk supply
My right boob always makes soo much more milk than me left boob! I latch my baby on both sides to encourage milk.. my let down on my right boob is also usually so strong that my son chokes really badly. So I end up latching him on my left breast while I pump on my right breast. I don't know if that's causing my right side to produce more. I've started latching him on my right side after I pump and pumping on my left hoping that'll help. Did anyone else experience uneven milk supply and what helped you??

@Mish Elle no, suuuuper common
