A. It's quite common for newborns, like your 3-week-old baby, to fall asleep while breastfeeding, often within just a few minutes. This can happen for several reasons: the soothing nature of breastfeeding, the comfort of being close to you, or simply because they are still adjusting to the outside world and may tire quickly. When your baby cries for more milk soon after feeding, it may indicate that he hasn't consumed enough during the short breastfeeding sessions or that he is going through a growth spurt, which can increase his appetite. To encourage longer feeding sessions, try gently waking him by stroking his back or changing his position if he falls asleep too quickly. You can also ensure he is latched properly, as a good latch can help him get more milk efficiently. If he continues to seem unsatisfied or if you have concerns about his feeding patterns, consulting with a pediatrician or a lactation consultant can provide additional support and guidance tailored to your baby's needs.
