    • try lying the baby on a pillow or putting your arm underneath him to raise him up higher - I actually found it was hard to do when my baby was very tiny - it was better when she was bigger and her head was bigger

    • put a pillow next to you w/ baby on top positioned to nurse from the higher breast. so if you are lying on your left side, baby would be nursing at right breast
