A. Check for flat nipple, cough , cold , ear pain. Try different feeding position. low flow rate may result in this. express some milk just prior to feeding to improve this. sometimes babies start showing preference to one side.. it improves in afew days.feed from that side first, especially at night babies tend to accept.

A. Sometimes it happens if the taste differs or if baby is not comfortable they choose the other side. When baby is really hungry or just woke up from sleep or during sleep you can feed in that side. Sure baby will have or Try to change the feeding position. or express milk from other side in bowl and feed with spoon.
