Am I feeding my newborn too much?

Zane

Hi! My baby is 4 weeks old and does not seem to ever get satisfied with me breastfeeding. I’ll usually do 15min each breast, sometimes even 20-30min each side. He will drift asleep for a bit but then bounce right back up, crying for more food. Is this normal? It has been happening since he was born, so it feels like it goes beyond cluster feeding or growth spurts? Any advice would be appreciated!
