My daughter is five weeks old. When I feed her, I always observe the following pattern: after she nurses for 10-15 minutes I get an impression that her nose is congested and she has difficulty breathing, because she moves her nostrils and holds her breath. There are no symptoms of cold or nasal congestion at any other time. Can she have some breathing problem, or is it just the gas irritating her diaphragm?
Another question: she never lets go of the breast on her own, but as she starts wiggling and making discontent noises after twenty minutes, I take her off the breast at that time. Is it normal at her age that she only nurses for about 20 minutes at a time?
Thank you in advance.
