Hi Jen
Thank you for your comments, it is really helpfull. I let him feed till he sleeps on my breast as that way I know he has had enough. How would I know if he had enough if I take him of the breast and put him into bed awake? If he is not tired he pulls off when he has had enough. He is a very hungry baby, he breast feeds about 8 times during the day and once or twice during the night.
Thanks for your help
