for those mummies who dl their newborn, how do you feed from both sides? my newborn tend to fall asleep at the first side and no matter how I try to wake him up to continue to feed on the other side, he won't wake up nor open his mouth. I'm trying to feed him more to bring down his jaundice.

Newborn tummy size is small, that's why your child feel full after one side feeding. If you can wait till next feeding, then offers him the side he not drink from previous feeding (eg last feeding from right breast so next feeding offer left breast). Also, newborn with jaundice tends to sleep a lot, so wake him up gently every one or 2 hours.
