I have been watching her latch lately to make sure she isn't "lazy latching" on me so this isn't the case. When Annika nurses on my right side lately it has been painful. I don't know what is going on. My breast has also been leaking a lot on this side. What is going on? Is my boob broke? Any suggestions? I have been having to use lanolin cream again. -------------------- Holley~ Loving wife to Shawn, (03/22/03), stepmom to Brandon (5/23/88), mom to Annika Lily (12/28/05).

Is she teething, especially on that particular side? -------------------- *~Karen~* wife to hubby, Ryan Douglas mommy to Kylie (9) and Megan (6.5) and furbabies Gavin, Buster, Sox, and Hailey

Hmm, it could be many things. If you are leaking it could be that she's not getting the milk out properly on that side. Is she teething, especially on that particular side?

I think I have finally found the colbrit. Annika is a little more wiggly on that side. I think she is slightly scraping her teeth and I not notice it right off. The other day I noticed it. I have been trying to watch her a little closer. She seems to be nursing more on that side so I'm thinking maybe my right side is a little fuller due to her "use".

I also ran into her Pedi this afternoon in Wal Mart. I was telling her how I don't see Annika weaning anytime soon in the near future. She just laughed and said, "Welcome to nursing past a year" club.
