I always say if the first 12 weeks do what ever you need to do to get through the day (and night), whatever works for you. There is plenty of time to work on other methods after that. They can change a fair bit around 12-13 weeks and I personally think 'habits' don't form until much later so I don't think you are going to 'teach' or form any 'habits' - good bad or otherwise - at this young age so just do what you can to survive and leave the advice for another day, especially as you are feeding so often which I can tell you is very time consuming and actually really really tiring.
My DD1 was quite wakeful and did have a kind of 'play' or awake talking snuggling time after a feed but not all babies are like that and if they are feeding often like my DD2 did they really just want to go back to sleep because their sleep gets sooooo interrupted from waking up hungry all.the.time. So if some awake time happens that's fine and dandy but at this stage I wouldn't be forcing it just for the sake of it.
