Am EBF my 8 week old DD and wondered how you do it lying down? Arms seem to go everywhere and she's just given me a love bite Hmm
Sounds interesting and I'm too lazy to sit up

I'm currently feeding my 3 day old lying down having cracked it faster than with ds1! I've got big boobs which are very full so I've got her lying on her side with her head on my arm. I'm also lying in my side, sort of curled round her. I find I need a couple of pillows under my head to get the angles right. Ds1 was tongue tied, I'm not sure we managed it for a couple of weeks at least and then I was so desperate for rest it was vital!

I think the LLL describes how to do it on their website...

I lay DS next to me, lean over him slightly, get my nipple in his gob, the roll him on to his side towards me as I lay down. I am certain that's not the 'proper' way but it works for us!! I'm not that well-endowed (F ish cup at the mo, but DS only 5wo) so don't need pillows etc.
