Breastfeeding Times & Milk out the nose




Marcy is breastfeeding with Eloise and I just did a little research on the subject and found this page helpful:

Breastfeeding a newborn

We were mainly curious about how long the baby should feed for. We’re shooting for 20 minutes per breast but Eloise seems to get sleepy about 10 minutes into the process.

She’s been feeding on demand, and now we’re going to take an anticipatory approach to make sure we’re noticing right away when she’s hungry.

UPDATE - April 6, 2008 - We also ran into an issue where milk was coming out of Eloise’s nose, so a quick search for “breastfeeding nose” returned this helpful page:
