Good day , My baby is 3 month old. Initially he takes 15-20mins of breastfeed but nowadays he takes only 5mins that too only on one breast. Looking around the surroundings & smiling. If am trying to feed him on other side or more than 5mins he didn't suck..is he got distracted? Is this fine or not mam.last week he got vaccination & his weight is 6kg from the birth weight 3kg.Does he gain proper weight with strength ?
