Is this normal?

Question

At first my baby was breastfeeding from both breasts. She would do 15-20 minutes on each breast. At the time I was only producing about 30ml. Now I'm producing about 100ml and she only feeds from one breast for about 15min before being done. Is it normal to only feed from one during a feeding? She eats about every 2 hours.

Answer

Sounds normal! My girl is 6 weeks and does the same during the day. She just started to cluster feed (i switch breasts every 30-45 min during this period) between 7-12 at night, then sleep for ~4-5 hours. 
Sometimes she eats from both breasts, but most of the time she takes just one at a time. She stopped taking both every single time at about 2 weeks old.

Answer

The first few days my baby nursed for 20-30 min on each side per feeding but since my milk came in he only does about 15 mins on one side..I'm producing a lot of milk though and it comes out fast so that might be your case too. 
Is he producing 6-8 wet and dirty diapers a day now? If so, then you're good!

Answer

My girl just hit seven weeks and will never eat from both in the same feeding. She usually waits about a half hour and decides she wants more so she gets the other side and will be happy for a few hours.
