She told me this always worked for me, and I have talked to other moms who swear it stimulates their baby to suck. If baby is taking a few sucks and then falling into dreamland, try switching to the other breast. Going through the latch-on procedure again may be enough to wake him for a few more minutes. You can keep switching breasts throughout the feeding if this seems to work. Unswaddle baby and lay him on the floor or bed.
Some babies love the comfort of being wrapped in a blanket.
Unwrap them, and their normal reflexes take over. The movement of stretching their legs or finding a fist to suck on may wake them enough to nurse. Keep baby warm, but don t swaddle before a feeding. Try a little walk. For most babies, nursing while mom is walking can put them out like a light.
