Shorter feeds!

[Pregnopaws]

I've noticed that Connor is spending only around 10-15 mins on the breast at most feeds but his suction power is huge and it appears that he is getting alot more breast milk with each gulp compared to when he was tiny. My breast starts to deflate within seconds of him drinking, its bizarre!!

He still feeds fairly often though, and I think thats because its so hot in this country he can't last too long without a drink. Have tried boiled water and all sorts but he spits everything out so I continue with breast, but is it normal that the feeds take less time as they get bigger????

lil miss does this.... my friend came over from the UK and said how short her feeds were... a lot of the time its for a quick drink...or some comfort... but as its getting hotter, we've been giving her tea. However, she much prefers boob.
