Normal nursing duration?

Question

My son is EBF and just turned 4 months. For the last 3 months, his feeds always took 15-20 minutes and sometimes up to a half hour. 
CB For the last week, I’m struggling to get him to go 10 minutes. Could he really have gotten that much more efficient? A feed of 6-7 minutes doesn’t seem like it’s enough compared to what he did do. He’s still making 8-10 wet diapers a day. 
Anyone else have super fast nursers??

Answer

They get more efficient as they get older so I wouldn't worry.
But they do get more distractable too, so I would keep an eye on diapers and things but I'm sure you're fine xx

Answer

My daughter has always ate for 7-10 minutes. I take her to a weighted feed each week and she gets 3-4oz in 10 minutes. Some babies are just super efficient.

Answer

Babies get more efficient. If he has enough wet diapers and he is growing on his curve then it’s enough.

Answer

My daughter usually had short sessions but then they were more frequent.  Just nurse on demand as much as he wants.
