It's interesting to read the discussion on one sided feeding. A few years ago Chloe Fisher did a lecture tour of Australia, and introduced the idea of 'finish the first side first' to many people - meaning that baby should be allowed to feed from the first side for as long as they want to, to ensure both fore and hind milk are taken, and thus avoiding the 'colic' associated with too much foremilk. Unfortunately, some interpreted this as 'one sided feeding' eg only offer one breast per feed, no matter what :/ Of course, some babies need both breasts per feed, some need one, some vary feed to feed. I suppose the message is let the baby lead, and treat each breast as a meal (I like that idea, sorry, I've forgotten which clever soul used this!).
