breast feeding and sleeping questions

I have been very lucky so far with breastfeeding - the baby has been latching on fine and doing anywhere from 10-20 minutes per side (more like 10-15 now that my milk is totally in) but all of a sudden she is only doing like 5 minutes a side - or ten minutes on one side and 5 on the other then she falls asleep (usually while I am feeding her) I worry that she isnt getting enough food - any advice?

All you need to check is the diapers - if she goes through diapers, she's getting enough. I'm not sure what the number of diapers is because it's been so long since I've breastfed.

As long as they're not lethargic, they'll let you know if they're hungry - trust me on that.

Your supply could have regulated itself. You may have a stronger let down in the beginning which fills her up sooner.
