My oldest is now 50. The thing I remember was that we were told "one minute each side the first day, 3 the second, 5 the third" etc. I asked "Is that minutes at the breast or minutes of actual sucking?" I never really got an answer, so I figured it made the most sense to count minutes of sucking. got so frustrated trying to count the time that way that I finally gave up that approach and pretty much let the baby decide. I was just too "lazy" to bother with the timing business. Winnie Mading
