How long?

My first few weeks BF were awful. Turns out LO had tongue tie. I've been EP the last week or so since finding out to avoid further damage to my nipples. Procedure was done yesterday and LO went right back to the breast, no problems.

How long should she be feeding though? The first few weeks she was nursing for more than 30 minutes on both side and then obviously still hungry. What's normal? Yesterday and today I'll put her on for about 15-20 minutes and then offer her the other side? Is this typical? She is a baby that loves to suck to soothe herself, so I'm not sure if she's still sucking to eat or just sucking to suck?
