What has been your longest breastfeeding session?

Combining both breast, what’s the maximum amount of time you have spent breastfeeding? It’s ok to include in the same time span going to the bathroom, getting water, etc. although I’m more interested in the longest stretch.

3 and half hours yesterday 👀 he just didn’t want to get off my boobs!! I feel like I stopped having milk and he just wanted to keep going :(

2 hours, I usually unlatch him after that for a bio break etc

4 hours. Day 2 at the hospital and it was continuous. I didn’t leave the hospital chair-bed. Only reason I stopped was because I got embarrassed that every time the nurse walked in I was naked lol

I’ve been here 3 hours and I have really low supply. So I wonder if she’s just sucking for comfort or for food. I could see milk inside the nipple shield in using but not always. She’s 5-6 weeks

@Jovana ok, and how old is he?

I needed to read this 🙏🏼. I’m day 5 pp and I have a little boobie monster. He’s on for hours at a time.. today was the first day I’ve seen shorter feeding times. I always worry I don’t have enough milk, but he’s meeting the dirty nappies and seems hydrated

@Nathalie he is 11 days old today

They are creating your supply. Mine was constantly wanting to be on the boob. Now he is 4.5 months he has a good 30/40 min constant feed and he’s done for a few hours. They will learn to drink more as your supply builds. I was also using shields, creams etc first 2 months constantly, now literally no need of it! Hang in there mamas it does get better after a bit.

Who knows lol, when I was cosleeping I’d regularly fall asleep and wake up with a baby on my boob. Im sure there were breaks in between but I wasn’t there for them!Probably the most overstimulating thing I’ve ever experienced lmao

5h when she was 2 days old 😩

@Nora thank you!
