#asktheexpert she is drinking breast milk only for 10 mins is that enough to her

A. For a three-month-old baby, drinking breast milk for 10 minutes may or may not be enough, depending on how efficiently she's nursing. Babies at this age typically breastfeed for 10-20 minutes per session, but the duration can vary. Some babies are able to get enough milk in a short time, while others may take longer. To ensure she's getting enough milk, you can check a few things: Weight Gain: Consistent weight gain is a good sign that she's feeding well. Diaper Output: A baby should have at least 6-8 wet diapers and 1-2 bowel movements per day, which indicates she's getting enough milk. Satisfaction After Feeding: If your baby seems content and sleeps well after feeding, it's a sign she’s getting enough. If you're concerned about the duration or quantity, you can try offering both breasts during each feeding session or offer the breast more frequently. If you're unsure, consulting with a pediatrician or a lactation consultant can give you peace of mind and more personalized advice.
