Breastfeeding wrong?

Megan

My baby girl is a week old now and we started off on the wrong foot with feedings, and she had lost a pound in her first few days of life but with the help of my midwife we got her back to a healthy weight and I finally noticed my milk coming in. However, now I am worried because when my milk started coming in my breasts were full and hard until after she ate and she would eat for 20 minutes and knock out for 3 hours, but now I’ve noticed my breast feel pretty normal all the time without getting hard or “full feeling” and my baby girl is only eating for like 6 minutes, falling asleep, then waking up hungry again 30 minutes-an hour later! I feel like I’m not doing enough, and don’t want her to suffer like before! 😭💔 is this normal? If not, any suggestions or insight on this issue?

Thanks guys 💕
