How long should feedings be?

There is no set time for feedings. They may be 15 to 20 minutes per breast. Or, they may be shorter or longer. Your baby will let you know when he or she is finished feeding. If you worry that your baby is not getting enough milk, talk to your baby\’s doctor. Use our Feeding Chart (PDF, 110 KB) to write down how often your baby wants to eat.
