Why does my 10-week-old only want to breastfeed while sleepy?
It is common for infants around 10-12 weeks to become more distracted and prefer feeding while drowsy or asleep. This is often a developmental phase rather than a sign of low supply or a feeding problem. As long as your baby is meeting their diaper output goals and gaining weight, they are likely receiving enough milk; try to offer the breast in a quiet, low-stimulation environment to help them focus while awake.
