Parasitic draw

Hi everyone...something is killing my battery while it is sitting parked, so I disconnected the negative battery cable and put my multimeter between it and negative battery terminal.

Immediately when I connect the meter it reads about 1.4A for about 30-40 seconds and then it drops to 90-100mA after that. It seems to stay at that (going on 15 mins now)...does this seem like a normal draw to you?

When I bought the car the guy said he replaced the battery, but I don't know if thts true...so I haven't ruled out bad battery, but I haven't tested it yet
