Watching Max try to nurse the minute they laid him on me in the hospital just proves how natural it is for babies to feed from the breast.
A lactation consultant told me that part of the draw is that the aerola secretes the smell of amniotic fluid. It’s familiar to them and makes them feel safe in this big new scary world.
What then is the draw later in life? Do my breasts also secrete the smell of leather footballs and beer?
you crack me up.
