Where to breastfeed at night?

Question

I am a heavy sleeper and fall asleep easily. 
I am wondering where the safest place to breastfeed at night is. I read that sofas and rocking chairs aren’t safe because you could fall asleep and baby would be at high risk of suffocation. 
Is bed safer?

Answer

I am a super hard sleeper and it never changed after my son was born. We coslept because it was wayyyy easier and if he wasn’t right next to me wiggling i didn’t wake up. He didn’t ever cry just little whines. As he got older I still coslept because I absolutely could not hear him even with a monitor on loud. My husband would shake me trying to wake me.

Answer

100% get a recliner. Rockers and gliders suck. Bed is terrible if you’re a heavy sleeper.

Answer

When my son was sleeping in my room, I breastfed in bed. When he was in his room, I fed him in his glider.

Answer

I always breastfed in the rocking chair in my daughter’s nursery.

Answer

The bed would be the worst place! Because you normally sleep there. I nursed in a rocking chair but would read my phone so I wouldn't fall asleep.

Answer

If you fall asleep Early maybe sit at the end of your bed so you don’t have anything to support you so that way you stay awake.
