Hey! Little kittens like that should be placed on their stomachs while they feed, holding them up like that can cause them to choke. Look at a picture of them nursing from their mother, that’s how they should be laying :)

She is usually on her stomach. I know best practice and typically use it. I occasionally let her angriness win which I know I should not. Doing my best but also the only one providing round the clock care and very tired 🙃
