Breastfeeding as they get heavier!
Hi everyone, my baby is now 6 weeks old and putting on weight fast! I'm finding I can't hold him as easily cross body and need cushions to support especially if holding with my left arm. This is fine for now but as he grows bigger he'll get heavier, plus I'd prefer not to have to lug cushions around once we start going out for longer together. Any tips that you'd recommend from experience?

I also found it difficult to nurse without any support. I’ve been using a nursing pillow at home and whenever we go out, I do take it with me. I know some would find it ridiculous and unnecessary but it’s not bulky and looks neat so I don’t mind. Makes our life easier.
As someone who had a very large baby finding a chair with an arm and propping my arm on that or with my leg helped
