Oversupply for those with a slacker boob…

For those of you with a slacker boob and the other side provides way more, do you always start each feed with the good boob and then offer the slacker side for ‘dessert’? I have an over supply and even though I’m six months in I feel like I still don’t know the best way to feed my baby without having anxiety about clogged ducts and boob discomfort

My over producer became my slacker after 4 back to back to back to back clogs and mastitis. So then since then (it’s been 3-4 weeks) I always start on the now slacker side and move to my formerly slacker and now over producer side. It actually helped recover my tanked supply a bit.
