Infant feeding

Sweaty breastfeeding :(

I know I'm lucky to be breastfeeding successfully with ds2 at 3months but want to a whinge! It's something hot and sticky and he's feeding all the time until we are stuck together in a sticky fleshy mass... Any tips or motivation?

Put a towel under his head/body wherever he's touching you? It's a very short term problem really, had the same in Ireland here for the last month with my 8 month old.

Same here! With my 9week old. I just put a piece of thin Muslin between us. It won’t last long though but wow, I’m looking forward to the colder weather!! 3rd DC but my first summer baby and it’s pretty awful lol. It will soon pass Flowers

I put a Tupperware container of ice near my fan and direct it at us.
