Mom of a 6 yr 11 m old girl1 Year ago

Q.

My 20 days old baby takes almost 2 hours for breastfeeding. He seems cranky too after feeding. But he has more than 10-12 wet nappies. Does this long sessions of breastfeeding means my supply is not enough? After 20 mins of session I can feel softness and there is no engorgement. Need advice from expert/experienced if my supply is mot sufficient or there is some other reason for long breastfeeding. Sessions?
