I've been wondering about this: how long does a 2-month-old baby nurse? What do you think?

Nursing duration varies from baby to baby. For a 2-month-old, a single nursing session typically lasts 10–20 minutes. What matters more than the time is whether your baby is nursing effectively — do you hear swallowing sounds when milk is in their mouth, do they look relaxed after nursing, and do they have 5–6 wet diapers a day? If these signs are present, even a short nursing time is fine. Some babies empty the breast quickly in 7–8 minutes; others might take 25 minutes. If your baby is constantly sleepy, drifts off immediately at the breast, or isn't gaining weight as expected, I'd recommend having a lactation consultant or pediatrician review your nursing technique.
