Love to dream swaddle

This might sound like a really stupid question so please don't judge but I'm wondering if I can breastfeed my baby while he's in his swaddle or if I need to take it off him for feeds?

i breastfeed mine in hers! her arm still tucks under enough for her to latch deeply!

Not sure about breastfeeding but I bottle feed my little girl in hers during the night xx

of course, why wouldnt you?

Yessss!! It’s by far so much easier. I was at a check up and walking back home so I swaddled baby. The nurse had a giggle and said she has to tell many mums it’s okay to do, and that I’m obviously not a ftm.

@Alli I've seen people saying you shouldn't feed in a traditional swaddle as the baby is at risk of overheating and also their hunger cues may be off and as they're restricted they could feel more full before they usually would so I wasn't sure if this would apply to the love to dream also. Better to be safe than sorry, he's my first baby and everything is a learning curve, just want to make sure I'm doing what's best for him!

@Katie i always kept my babies hands free during nursing so if baby isnt latching as well or getting milk as easy just pop his hands out so he can use them. no need to unwrap him completely!

At night I feed her in hers
