Side-lying nursing at African Babies Don't Cry + #6IngredientChallenge shout-out


cosleeping side-lying breastfeeding tutorialI'm so chuffed to have a guest post at African Babies Don't Cry about how to manage the tricky but needful art of side-lying nursing. It lets you breastfeed but sleep at the same time! How cool is that?
