Breastfeeding mamas

How long is your little one feeding ? And how many times a day ? My little guy does max 10 mins ish and 8 feedings during the day… I don’t know why that worries me 😓 he is gaining weight and the lactation doesn’t seem to be concern

My second born can eat all day long but my first would eat like 5-10 minutes and be done. Same thing, gained weight and the lactation consultant wasn't concerned. But I have a very fast and forceful let down so I assumed she got her 3-4 oz mostly by my let down and then was full enough

My little one does the same but feeds less than 10 mins and is a chunk lol you could just be an over supplier (:

Thanks so much for the reply. Feeling better

You’re lucky. My son is such an inefficient eater. He’ll eat like 20-30 minutes up to 10 times a day.

@Ann Aw thanks it doesnt always feel that way. My first super confident with my breastfeeding journey then my second struggle but made it through and now with my third I question everything lol they are all so different feeders

@Ann same!
