A. there is no problem in giving breast feeding in lying position but at the same time you should keep the head of the child slightly elevated otherwise sometimes it can lead to aspiration in lungs as well as sodmetimes it can lead to milk going inside the ear of the child. if the child is cdomfortable then you can continue to give breastfeeding in the lying down position.
