Can I breastfeed my one month old while lying down? Is it safe for her as internet is filled with information that it can be fatal for baby but I find it very comfortable and relaxing.

Avoid leaning and putting breast into baby's mouth, with baby lying supine, as this can lead to poor attachment and can lead to aspirations. But feeding can be done in side lying positions with proper latching.
