How long does your baby nurse for at night?

Question

How many minutes would you estimate your baby nurses for when they get up in the middle of the night for a feed? Do they fall back asleep or want to keep nursing?

Answer

5-10 minutes. I swear she's just using me as a pacifier at night.

Answer

5-15 minutes

Answer

I give him 15 minutes per boob no matter the time of day. He normally starts pushing off or falling asleep at 12 or 13 minutes though

Answer

My baby doesn't wake up at a night anymore but she used to wake up once and eat for 15 minutes and go back to sleep

Answer

My LO is 7 weeks old and nurses for ten monutes on each breast with a nappy change between each one as she usually falls asleep near the end of a feed.

Answer

Same.  15 minutes and falls asleep again. Usually only get to nurse one side so I end up pumping once during night to reduce the engorgement pain and leaking in the morning!

Answer

15-20minutes and falls asleep while feeding (on a normal night/not cluster feeding)

Answer

30 minutes no matter what time it is
