I am a mumma to twin boys who just completed 3 months today . my problem is that whenever I breastfeed them together it seems as if they have sibling rivalry between them . both prefer my left breast & start wailing when either of them realises it's not my left breast. I face latching issues too. Though I don't relent to their crying, I do feel guilty about it as they start feeding after a while if I don't budge.
Please tell me if I'm doing the right thing & how do I solve this problem?

It is quite possible for kids that young to prefer one side of the breast. They are not rivals for now but yes, they both want the same thing. Management is your only answer unfortunately. There's probably a certain flow difference between both the breasts that brings about this preference and there's. Nothing much we cN change about it. Try switching it between both even mid fees, if you think that may help.
