Mommy how long do you breastfeed per breast? It can be either one of 2 things and this is what my baby’s pedia told me kasi before question ko rin yan after giving birth sa first baby ko. First is pwedeng di enough ang milk (this would be usually accompanied with your baby crying after feeding). If enough naman ang milk ang second possible reason is pwedeng di enough ang time that you spend breastfeeding on each breast - you should atleast have your baby latch on each breast for minimum 15 minutes per feeding. First 10 minutes kasi ang nakukuha ni baby is just the fore-milk natin - eto ung parang malabong water na lumalabas sa breast sa umpisa ng breastfeeding eto rin ung iniihi ni baby. Ung after the 10th minute na milk ang important makuha ni baby which is called hind-milk. Eto ung creamy white milk na puno ng nutrition for baby. Eto rin ung milk na nagiging poop ni baby na yellow seedy color. Ung poop ni baby is an indication that baby is getting enough nutritious milk daily.
Pag breastfeeding po natural lang. Up to 1week po
