Baby was bottle fed my breast milk in the nicu, but now I want to transition him to mostly my breast. Last night we did only breast and I felt like he was on ALL night . Is he not getting as full as he would taking it from the bottle?

No, it's totally normal for babe to be on your boob for what feels like forever. Keep it up momma!

When we got home from the nicu it felt like my itty bitty was ALWAYS on the boob.

@kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom, was he bottle fed in the nicu ?

Tube fed, bottle fed, as we practice nursed starting at 32-33 weeks gestational. He took the bottle okay and latched on perfectly from the beginning. We left the nicu at 36 weeks gestational and we were able to breastfeed at home, and fast forward a year we're still breastfeeding.
