How do you do it properly because I end up getting sore nipples? He sort of pulls it in his mouth and it gets stingy. I find myself sort of leaning into him like boob to baby instead of baby to boob!
 
I never mastered feeding lying down, I had the same problems!!
 
I used to do it laid on my side (in bed) I used to lay kieron further down than usual and lay him on his side the n my nipples were level with his nose/mouth so could get a good latch (hope that makes sense) xx

This is how I do it too. Sometimes I use my hand to lift up my boob to get the nipple in front of eva's mouth so that she can latch on.

So if your lying on your left side where do you put your left arm? I'd like to cradle him but it's not a good angle.
 
I put my arm under my head if that makes sense!
