Help! My baby keep falling asleep 5 minutes into breastfeeding

Nathalie

My baby is 5 weeks old and I love the bonding moment I have with him while I breastfeed him. However, my baby can only feed 5 minutes and sometimes even less before falling asleep. He has no problem latching on. I have heard some women only breastfeed their babies and that they spend 20 and up to an hour breastfeeding them. I need advice on how I can achieve that. Buying formulas is really getting expensive when my breastmilk is free.
