A. there has to be some local cause for this like problems in the breast or nipples so I would suggest you to consult with your treating gynecologist about this query of yours

A. Hello mommy, A newborn may reject one breast because it's harder to latch on to for some reason. The rejected breast may be more engorged or have a difference in the nipple, for example. An older baby may reject one breast because it has a low milk supply or a slower flow or letdown than the other breast. Some babies fuss when they are having a growth spurt, or when they are having trouble dealing with a fast milk flow. When babies are really upset, it can be hard for them to calm down enough to breastfeed. ... But in most cases, all you need to do is find ways to soothe your baby, and then try again.
