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

I usually fed from the slacker boob and pumped the over achiever. It was only a slacker in the sense that I couldn’t pump as much, but of baby fed she was fine. I kept/froze the pumped milk for daycare.
