Yes you can give it but it is advisable to given in sitting position. Make sure while giving feeding you sit normally and your spine should be straight and not bended. And bring child closer to you, not that you go closer to child and bend your spine. That will make pain in spine in long term
Next Steps
Consult pediatrician online or in person for further details

Yes you can feed lying but see to that someone is there to watch you. There is high chance you might fall asleep over baby.
Next Steps
Burp the baby for 10-15 min to reduce vomiting.
