Drink more fluid.: It is important to keep putting the baby to the breast. The weather makes you need more fluid and you need to keep stimulating the breast by the baby suck to increase breast flow. Make sure to burp the baby after feeds to decrease amount of gas going to the bowels that may cause the symptoms you have. Breast milk is best and baby at age should be satisfied with breast milk. Drink more fluid.
