How long does your 1 month old nurse?

Question

Just wondering how long other 4 week olds are nursing for? My girl is all over the map and I’m not sure what I should be aiming for to make sure we get a full feeding. Sometimes she’ll go for 15 mins a side and others she’ll pull away and get fussy and stop at 7 mins but then seems content after. Any thoughts?

Answer

Just keep feed her on demand so your milk keeps up with your baby. At 4 weeks they are kinda doing their own thing at that point. When my youngest was 1 month old she would nurse anywhere from 5 to 30 minuets a side. 
As long as she's having 10-12 wet diapers a day and at least one poop day  she should be fine. But its not uncommon for a exclusively breastfed baby to go a few days to a week with out pooping (their body some times uses up everything and there's no waste) 
Just count wet diapers to make sure she's getting enough :)

Answer

She's cluster feeding. It helps to boost your supply. Just feed on demand.

Answer

My 4 week old will easily nurse for 20-30 mins on each side every feeding every couple hours but sometimes he'll fall asleep sooner.
