@vannah, most of your milk will come out within the first 10 min, and it comes out fast. as long as you feed him when he is hungry, it is okay if he sleeps alot.

Babies can be very sleepy in their first few days of life. As long as he is producing wet and messy diapers, he is getting enough nutrition. At his 2 week check, you will find out if he is gaining weight. If so, keep doing what you're doing, mama 😃
