"During each feeding session the baby has to nurse as much as the baby wants. Usually most of the time the feeding sessions are 10 to 15 minutes on each side and if a initial day if the baby wants to feed longer you can allow that maybe half an hour on each side also. So how do we know that a mother is getting enough milk which is sufficient for the baby? The first and easy cue is after feeding for a few minutes the baby will sleep and this sleep will last for at least 1 to 1 and a half an hour time and that is in the initial one week and usually after the initial one week if the milk supply is adequate then the baby will sleep for 2 to 3 hours. The second cue is adequate weight gain and third cue is good number of urine per day at least six per day. From Mother's point of view sleeping comfortably for at least 1 and a half to 2 hours can be taken as sufficient milk production"
