Yes, your supply has regulated itself with his demand and he is also realizing there is more to life than just eatingChat Icon

I think they get more efficient at nursing as well.....totally normal--I remember wondering the same thing. As far as longer btwn feedings my DS still usually eats every 3 hours during the day but has long stretches at night! Sounds like your DS is doing great!

By 3 months, DD was eating 15 minutes at each breast, sometimes longer. That was the age when she ate the longest actually. She pretty much always wanted to eat close to every 3 hours. Now that she is 6 months and started solids it has gone down with further time in between. 5 minutes sounds kind of short...did you actually time it?

I remember around that time that he got efficient at feeding and I could feel my milk flowing. It all went faster.
