A. if the water goes inside the ear cavity the child may become prone to hear infections if the water doesn't come out. also breastfeeding in the lying position carries a risk of ear infection in the child.

A. feed in st'itting position. Sometimes baby may be choke even without our knowledge. Sometimes we may sleep in tiredness. It's better not to feed n slepping position. Best you could do is ensure to sit comfortably and feed your baby.I weekly twice you can wash hairs.
