after feeding, 6mo dd twirls my nipple and SMILES at it like it is her VERY best friend. sometimes she "talks" to it too before i take it away. cute, bt kinda uncomfortable. anyone know why babies like to do this?

i know it helps letdown, but i also think it just becomes their "lovey" if it is allowed to... I dont mind him twiddling for letdown, but it is a bit much when he tries to reach down shirt quite frequently!! The breast is a source of comfort...

Yeah stimulates the milk and then they just love love love it!!! Have to nurse with one hand constantly covering the other breast now!!
