Is my baby hungry or what?????

DS is 7 weeks old and EBB. I seriously can't tell if he's hungry or nursing for comfort. He'll have what I think is a good feeding but then I put him on my chest to burp him and he starts rooting again. He won't take a binky so it's hard to tell. I don't mind nursing him for comfort but if he's actually hungry still then I'd wanna switch breasts. HELP!

    If he's rooting it sounds like he's still hungry. With my daughter she ate from both breasts at every feeding.

    Yep probably still hungry and needing both breasts.  I always fed mine from both to keep supply even.  Also growth spurts happen regularly at this age and your breasts will actually produce more in anticipation! :)
