1. Drink plenty of water and stay hydrated. Have a glass of water before a feed and then always have a glass by your side during a feeding session.

    2. Fans or airconditioning - It’s hard to keep cool with a little heat pack pressed up against your body, so make sure you are somewhere cool before you feed!

    3. A midwife gave me this tip. When it gets really hot and sticky, jump in a tepid bath and breastfeed. It will help cool you and a hot and cranky baby to settle too. Great if you don’t have air-con!
