Baby breastfeeding with just one breast
Dear Sir/Ma'am
Recently my 2.5 month old baby had cold and now for past 3 days he is not turning head towards one of my breasts for breastfeeding (right one) although he is turning head in both directions otherwise.I am not getting what is the problem,his head , shoulder,ear everything appears to be fine but when I try to turn his head towards my right breast for feeding he just starts to cry and maintains his head stiff so as to not to turn his head towards me and whenever I nurse him with my left breast,he is just fine.How to cope up with this...I am not getting anything

It is torticollis.
It happens due to prolonged position of head on one side. One side of muscle has become stiff.
Can consider physiotherapy.
