Breastfeeding issue
I am mother of one month old baby girl (premature baby born at 35th week) from past one month i am breastfeeding on only left side and I didn't breastfeed on the right side due to excess flow which cause choking to my child. But my mother and friends insisting me to breastfeed on both the sides. Today i checked my right side breastmilk which is salty in taste. What can i do now? Can i breastfeed right side with that salty taste? Will it harm baby? How long will it take to taste normal?
