How long should newborns nurse for? Per side?

Question

Answer

However long they want. 😬

Answer

Until they’re finished. Sometimes that was 40 minutes for mine.

Answer

Every baby is different. Both my girls nursed 5-10 total each session. Each of my Sister in laws kids nursed 30-40 mins each session. Nurse baby until they seem full or unlatch

Answer

As long as they want 🤷‍♀️

Answer

Every baby is different. When mine was a newborn it was about 40 minutes switching between sides whenever she wanted. Sometimes that was 30 min, 10 min; 20 and 20; or 10, 10, 10, 10. Just follow baby's cues for when they're full/want to switch, there aren't any rules.
