Might be a silly question...!

Dd2 is down to two feeds per day (at morning wake up and before bed).  So if I follow the 'rule' of starting feeding on the breast that was not emptied at the last feed (ie. the last breast she fed off, since we're double-sided feeding) I should be starting every morning off on the same side.  However I feel like I should be alternating the starting sides in the morning (due to feeling fuller etc in the mornings than at night).  Is this right?  Does it really matter at this point (she's 12mo).  One side definitely produces more milk than the other side.

TIA!

When Jamie was 12 mo i'd always feed from the fuller one for his morning feed.
Other feeds after that i'd use the side i'd last fed on.

I'm nearly at 12 months of bf and I always start each feed on the same side. She always feeds better on the LHS so I always start there. We are still feeding 3 times a day.

I still start dd on the side I finished off on the last time, but honestly, I think you just do whatever works best and feels the most comfortable for you.  If you're down to just two feeds, she's getting most of her nutrition elsewhere, so the type of milk she's getting from you isn't going to make as much difference as it would for a newborn or even a 6 month old.

I start with the same side, both morning & night.  At this point, I don't know that it matters too much.

Thanks ladies!  I figured it probably doesn't really matter now, and my body will adjust to whatever I do anyway.
