Are you worried bay is getting sleepy and letting go before they get enough to eat? Can you tell when thy are drawing milk vs just comfort suckling?

It depends… sometimes she will be actively eating for 10-15min on each side before she starts falling asleep. I usually have to burp her and change her diaper to wake her up before switching to the other side. But there’s been times that even after 5 min she’s fallen back to sleep. And during the day sometimes she will be actively eating for 20+ min and I end up switching her to the other side so I can try to empty the other side.
