A. Seems normal. Newborn ms do have latch issues intially. try you can take help and try to feed your baby. While they hold the baby you can feed the baby and help baby to latch. It would take a few weeks to get trained. Have patience and feed baby. Make sure you sit comfortably and feed baby. Support yourself with cushions an d pillows and you can feed. Also teach your baby to latch slowly

A. What is completely normal see the child has its own latching capacity so the time of the feeding can increase or decrease depending upon their capacity and also sleep pattern for 15 to 20 minutes is normal feeding time is normal so don’t worry about it
