Feeding

I am exclusively breastfeeding and my 17 day old baby is only eating for 15 minutes at a time and only one boob- maybe 5min on the second. We hit 10 feeds a day with 2-3 feeds lasting 25-30min but im nervous because she decreased the length of most feeds.

Her doctor was worried about her weight gain before she hit 2weeks. She weighed 7lbs 2oz when she was born, went down to 6lbs 8oz the Friday of her first appointment (3 days later) then the next Friday she was 6lbs 12oz. During that time she was only doing one boob and nursed for about 45min. They told me they were wanting her to get back to her birth weight for that Tuesday, we met with a lactation consultant and started feeding both boobs. We had the appointment and she hit 7lbs and she was in the all clear. That 4day stretch she ate almost every hour and a half- two hours and ate for about 30 minutes. Since then shes gone down with feedings.

Her one month appointment is in the middle of October and im nervous shes not going to have gained what they want her to, but shes not hungry. I dont want to/cant force her to eat so im not sure what to do.
