My 2 week old won't breast feed longer than 7 mins.

Mrs
My 2 week old was breast feeding for 20-30 mins but then recently started to only feed for approximately 7 mins. He will eat for 7 mins then pull off and fuss. He will be fussy, won't latch on again, and kick and cry. He isn't content after the 7 mins, like he is full, but rather he is fussy and awake. I can get him to feed about 7-14 mins longer if I use the nipple guard. Why is this happening?
