IS THIS NORMAL/OKAY??::my daughter and I laid down at about 10. I fell asleep while breastfeeding, I wake up now an hour and 15 mins later and she's still on my boob. It's like she's eating and sleeping at the same time. A few sucks then she stops, a few more sucks and then she stops again.

You have to help her stay up

@momofdeuce but is it a bad thing? Like should she not be doing that?

If you don't want her sucking on your boob all night . Basically she's just snacking . Also co sleeping they'll want the boob more. & she's probably not getting the fat milk which is why she stays latched. Its better to be awake when they're feeding at that age until they get better at bf .

@momofdeuce okay that makes sense but how do I know if she's getting the "fat milk"

Found this online .....
Allow your baby to finish the first breast before offering the second breast as the fat rich milk will allow them to feel fuller for longer and; therefore, more settled between feeds.

I doubt she is nursing for hunger... she is comfort nursing, aka using you as a pacifier. Lol. My babies did that too. I don't thing there is anything wrong with it and your body will regulate the milk your baby needs, I wouldn't worry about the type of milk baby is getting as long as she is gaining weight, you are doing good. I bf my babies on demand.... for food and comfort.
