I feed Debs sitting cross legged so she can wriggle around whilst feeding but she's still safe because she's being "cradled" by my legs. It's also easier because I've got huuuge boobies so i can just sort of drop them in her mouth lol, and support the booby with one hand. I was doing this at a new parent group and afterwards another new mum came up and said she'd given up breast-feeding as she also had huge boobies but couldn't find a comfy position to do it. It's nice people are looking into different position's to feed.

i read this and was glad im not doin wrong lol!
as soon as i could go on my side after my c section, i fed Jam in bed with me, and he loved it!
he knows that after his bath he gets to have booby in bed then when hes asleep he goes in his cot - im glad he goes to bed happy lol
