A long time but I've got a low supply so in turn a slow flow. Total time is generally never less than 30 minutes total.

It was rare if he actually fed more than 15 minutes at that time. But he always liked small meals and typically only ate from one breast at a time.

10-15 minutes usually...DD (7 weeks) has reflux so we have been trying to nurse more frequently (so smaller feedings) to help this...

DD is still all over the place. Usually about 10 minutes, never more than 15. I do have a forceful letdown though, so she gets the mlk quickly.

My DD only used to nurse for around 7 min or so on each side. She was growing like crazy though so I wasn't worried!
Now that she is bigger it is more like 30 min total.

DD#1 used to be able to drain my brast in 5 minutes!! I was worried that something was wrong- but she seemed satisfied and had plenty of wet/poopy diapers.

From birth until about 8 months old, DS would nurse 40 minutes total. 20 min on each side.
