BF DS only feeding for 5 minutes maximum

[Shatteredmom]

Hi, wondering if anyone has been through what I am experiencing. DS is now 15 weeks and almost entirely BF. My big concern is that he only feeds for a maximum of 5 minutes, once every 1-2 hours. Once he has finished he looks satisfied, but I am concerned that he never reaches the hindmilk and even more worried that I don't actually produce it anymore (read that 'snacking' can do this). He is gaining weight, but only slowly (4oz per week), so I was wondering if anyone else had been through this problem and managed to get their DS or DD back on track and feeding longer as I am convinced he can only be getting 20oz a day max.

Did you overcome this in the end? What happened. I am struggling with similar myself at the moment as my daughter doesn't feed for very long 3-5 mins on each boob. I try to pump after and get nothing. If I pump a couple of hours after a feed I get 3oz. I have been told that I may have to give formula top ups because she has gone from the 75th centile to the 9th. (8lb 12oz at birth to 12lb 8oz at 19 weeks... please help! I really don't want to give up breastfeeding!
