How long to latch in one session for a newborn ?

Question

Hi Mummies, Can I know how long do we need to latch newborn baby ? My newborn is 10 days old and I want to know what is the right duration for latching #firsttimemom #advicepls

It should be roughly 15 to 20 mins or more per session. As they age up, it will be lesser. Do remember to pump for 20 to 30 mins every 3 to 4 hrs after latching so your breast can get the milk production momentum.

Thanks Eva! This is helpful. So I need to pump 3 hours after feeding and not immediately ?
