A. yes it is very commonly seen that the child will take breastfeeding from only one breast properly and will not be comfortable when taking breastfeeding from other breast. it is very important to give breastfeeding ffrom both the breast otherwise there will be abnormal increase in size of one breast and the other breast will be small. see for proper position attachment while giving breastfeeding from other1 breast. you can take help of breastfeezding pillow as well as meet lactation expert and see videos on youutube regarding position and attachment while breastfeeding
