Baby prefers left breast over right
My 2 month old baby is on mix feed of breast & bottle feed. He sucks well from left nipple but leaves the right one. He will either suck right nipple for for few seconds & then leave it or dozes off to sleep as I offer right nipple. Due to this reason left breast has become heavier than right. How can I get him to suck right nipple equally? Need relevant solution to this problem.

There is side preference in most babies bcz the baby is made more comfortable while sucking on one side, so he/she prefers that side.....make him/her equally comfortable at the less preferred side while feeding...look for any nipple problems also
