I have a super fast let down so my 5 week old only feeds for 5-10 minutes as it gets later in the day maybe 15. Anything between 5-40 mins is normal as long as you’re baby is full after that’s all that matters x

Mine does anywhere between 10-45 minutes usually going 1.5-4 hours between feeds. The last couple of days she's been doing longer feeds in the evenings I think to fill up for the night as she's currently sleeping 7ish hours overnight

@Jess wow!! 7 hours. Mine still wakes 1, 4 and 6 for 30 min feeds 😴

I'm trying not to get too used to it because I know it could change at any time but I am definitely making the most of it while it lasts!
