ds is struggling at the moment to stay on, he feeds well for a few minutes then cries until he's put down, but shortly after he cries again to be fed. It's currently taking about 1 hour to give him what he normally takes in about 10 minutes.
I'm pretty sure its heat related as he feeds fine first thing in the morning and during the night. I always feed him in the conventional way, sitting up with him lying across my lap. Any suggestions for an alternative position? Lying down isn't very successful, I think because I have smallish boobs so can't maneouvre them into a good position, so we still have to end up being as close as normal and so not much cooler (and added to that I've never worked out where to put my lower arm and end up with pins and needles!).
He's 4 months by the way, and quite a robust long little fellow.
