BF while lying down - Page 2

My boobs are far too small to do it comfortably and if I fell asleep like that I'd squish her, so I just change!

Yeah, I meant to say you "cant" sleep that way...not with tiny ta-tas anyway...

Ive been told you can just use a pillow and then yr lo is higher up for the other boob and that way you dont have to move! Id love to feed lying down but lo wont keep his suction

I seem to only ben able to feed laying on my right side, with H feeding from my right boob. He just wont latch properly when I try from my left side laying down & he gets frustrated... I only feed laying down from my right occasionally anyway, usually when I'm too lazy to get up & want H to sleep for another hour or so, lol! Rest of the time he lays across my chest to feed, or i cradle him on the chair...

Sticking her on a pillow worked fine for me but I do have big "Ta-tas" (thanks Elysian for that phrase, I love it!)
