I cant see the fretboard and in dont have a comfortable grip on the neck ( i cant get my thumb far enough back on the neck, which results in an uncomfortable angle on the wrist). i play with the body of the guitar resting on my stomack, and the top of the guitar is in line with my bellybotton.

Any recomendation to improve my situation?

Here is the thread I started some time ago.

From the answers I got , it seems it narrows down to 2 things:
1) practice a lot standing
2) Making playing seated more alike playing standing (by either changing the way to play seated , moving the strap position or both).
