A. One of the disadvantages of lying down is that as the child sucks, it could aspirate,” This breast milk can leave the child's stomach and enter into the lungs and this can cause lung infection. “Also, as the child is sucking, some of the breast milk might drip out of the mouth into the ear so better avoid
