Tips for Breastfeeding in Winter?
Brrrrr, winter has finally arrrived and it is cold! What are your tips for breastfeeding in winter - particularly at night? Even though I’m in QLD it still gets cold and some things I found useful were:
1. At night take your baby and feed in bed. It’s so much nicer and cosier under the flannie sheets! If your baby is young you can have the bassinette near your bed so you don’t have to go to far and get cold.
2. Get some warm PJs that have a good opening for breastfeeding so your tummy and back isn’t cold and exposed.
3. Put your heater on a timer so it can warm up the room before the first feed around 4-5am in the morning when it is really cold.
Anyone else have some tips to share?

I used to love feeding in bed under the nice warm doona before getting up for the day. Loving, cosy and warm.
