Both of us feel uncomfortable while I am sitting down. But my mother says that I should not feed her in lying down position. Is it wrong to feed her in lying down position. What can I do now?

I've had several friends who have had babies who fail to thrive because they feed their babies at one breast per feed. They have been told by health professionals to feed for dear life on one breast "to get all the hind milk".
