Very often recommended for young mothers who are breastfeeding to manage and alternate breasts at each feeding to empty both breast and avoid traffic jams and problems of various kinds.
In fact this practice is not the optimal solution, rather a series of more or less serious drawbacks, it would be best avoided.
First, the milk produced from her breasts is not the same throughout the feeding but becomes progressively more dense and nutritious: it must be the baby to decide how hungry and how much milk he wants. If he thirst only suck for a few minutes taking the milk fresher and lighter, if you arrive hungry until the last milk, blanking the breast. Alternate mechanism could deliberately create problems of growth in small babies who in mid-feeding, are again head start of the first milk, miss the end of the previous breast, milk fat and more nutritious.
So do not change during breast feeding, let your child do a completely empty, and only then, should it come off and cry because he was still hungry, offer the other breast.
instead Alternate breasts at each feeding the next, and if the feed before the baby has sucked all the two breasts to an insatiable hunger, be sure to start from the last that was offered.

If in the first months of life for your pet when feedings are very common, you have some trouble remembering which breast to offer their next request, you can use a ring or a pin that will serve to "mark" the first guy.
