Hi Airline,
Sounds like you have made a great decision, I hope that it works for you and your bub.
I thought I might offer you a few things i know.
*The more feeds a baby has, the more breastmilk that is made, breastfeeding produces breastmilk :-D
* The first feed off a breast is called their foremilk, this is a sugery - watery type milk that gives them a burst of energy
* the second half (Not necessarily half) of a feed is called hindmilk - this is 'fatter' and will fill them up more.
So with that being said, sometimes it is more helpful for the baby to feed as long as they like, so they are getting all that fatty Hindmilk to bulk them up.
I hope things settle down for you and your little bubba starts putting on the pounds :-D Take care.
