My baby boy is just 20 days old, due to weight loss dr adviced formula fed along with breastfeeding.. My child at first was not latching but from 2 days he is latching properly but 1 side with nipple shield and otherside without shield. Whenever I breastfeed him he continues it for more than half an hour or 45 mins .. Is it common. How many mins of  breastfeeding is normal at a time. How many times in a day breastfeeding is normal.

Should complete it in 15min. Once every 2 hours Nipple syringing would be very helpful, although painful.
