A. Hello dear parent! Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby well on demand for better health, nutrition and hydration. Burp your baby after every feed. Keep Babyhug teethers handy in case your baby is teething

Q. #Mamypoko#AskTheExpert Is it normal for babies to take feed for 45 mins or upto 1 hr 15-20 mins. My baby is 16 days old and he is taking feed at this duration. Say in 2 hrs he would take 1 feed for 40-45 mins. Again if he isn't falling asleep he would demand more milk and feed for another 15-20 mins. So in 2 hrs he might feed upto 1 hr 20 mins at times ( First feed for 40-45 mins then a break and then second feed for 15-20 mins). Once he took feed upto 1 hr at a stretch. Kindly let know if these feeding duration is normal for new born. Few suggested that the ideal duration for feeding would be 20-30 mins. Kindly let know you're opinion on the above query and if feeding for long duration is normal
