A. baby is getting sufficient hind milk even if feeds for 10 mins. as baby grows he learns to finish breasts more frequently. give only breastmilk till completion of Six month

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much and as per my opinion and personal experience of two babies you should feed your baby minimum 15 minutes from each breast. And if baby is doing pee above eight times that means baby is having sufficient milk. Take care

Q. #asktheexpert mother of one month old baby. Sometimes baby leaves feed within 10 min and may demand feed within 1 hour. In such case I have to feed from same side or switch to the other side. My paediatrician has asked me to feed for 15 min at every 2-3 hours or on demand, at every alternate side.
