Normally when ever the baby wants to breast feed. Then its like every 2 to 4 hours after that.

Babies are usually interested in their first feeding within an hour after birth. The best thing to do is once the baby is out, bring him to your breast. Even if he doesn't latch on right away, the nuzzling can help to contract your uterus and promote healing. And breastfeeding doesn't have to be painful if your baby is latched correctly!

you can start about 1 minute after birth. The first few days a thick dark goop will come out and it will be painful, but it is high energy food for the baby and also helps the baby's immune system, it is called colostrum. After a few days milk should come in.

About 30seconds....as much time as it takes to wipe off and quickly examine the baby after cutting the umbilical cord!
