Just pick them up gently and either put them to the breast or give the bottle. Even if they wake the sucking motion will send them straight back off. Once they’re finished they’re so milk drunk they’re out for the count and can be popped back down 😊

Have that breat out hanging already 😅,massage the breast and squeeze a little bit .( so they don’t have to work hard at the start) getting things flowing. Just be slow and gentle. Sometimes they might wake up and iriz waririz lmao,most times you’ll win as you get better .The only way to get really good at it is by doing it a lot ,start during day naps maybe ..

Mine usually wakes briefly during a dream feed and nappy change but 99% of the time drops straight back off once she starts drinking
