Baby falling asleep on the boob
Another breastfeeding question!!
DD is only 10 days old. She's been falling asleep more quickly during breastfeeding and I have I try to wake her up. Plus I feel like she doesn't eat as much and then I have to feed her more frequently.
Any tips?

Ds would do that. Try undressing her when you feed her and changer her pamper midway if you feel like she's falling asleep and not eating as much

I would also have a cool washcloth that I would wipe DS with to wake him up a little. And tickle his feet.

This is what I did too. Worked like a charm!

I tried all of the tips above. Nothing worked for DD at that age! Try them, see what works. If nothing else give it time. DD was much better by 3-4 weeks.

This.. when I BF she nearly ALWAYS dropped off at the boob. So I kept a wet paper towel and changed her before I switched her to another side.
