Breastfeeding timing/boob switch?
Hi mammas, FTM here. with two week old baby boy. I’m having a hard time finding a groove for breastfeeding and I’m worried it’s resulting in a gassy, colicky baby (he cries and screams when he has gas.. which is often). I ’ve had the latch checked and changed my diet to be super bland (free of allergens and gassy foods).
Initially baby was on one boob for 30-40 minutes. I was told to only allow up to 20 mins so we cut it back to that— I was doing one boob at a time for a feeding. Recently, I’ve changed it to 10 mins on first boob, burp, 10 mins on other boob, burp. Sometimes he wants to eat more so I just go back to first boob.
Wondering what method you mamas use? Could use any input you have! :) thank you💙🙏🏼
