Breastfeeding
My little one is 12 weeks old. She has recently stopped using shields to feed but she’s gone from feeding 25 minutes on one breast to between 5-10 minutes on one breast. Will she still be getting the same amount of milk? I’m worried she’s not getting enough. She’s still having plenty of wet and soiled nappies x

I swapped from shields at 8 weeks and my little boy fed much more efficiently xx
5-10 minutes is the average. Babies are very efficient at the breast

She is feeding more efficiently now (and would probably get milk faster directly from boob compared to with a shield I’d assume) I wouldn’t worry if she appears content while feeding and after getting milk xx
