Is your milk flow really good. He may just be getting enough in those 5 min to satisfy him. No worries
I was so worried because my little guy wouldn't latch and when he did he would hardly feed! As long as there is weight gain my pediatrician said that whatever I'm doing I'm doing a good job at it! You're doing great!
@carolynrose, whew I'm glad cuz I'm being told he should be eating 15 min or longer. before my milk came in he was eating 30 minutes to 45 minutes if not longer but since my milk has come in he drinks less and less and 5 min each is what I've learned he can manage
My daughter was & still is the same way. As long as he continues to gain weight it's not a problem!
@egaylep2, Yes apparently it flows really well. . maybe TMI lol but I was trying to feed him this morning and bearly applying pressure and a straight line stream and I couldn't get it to stop until I just dropped it
