Quote from website and news release: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/09/070915125155.htm http://www.nursingmothergroebaby.co.uk/ Studies indicate that patterns with high contrast colours, especially black and white, register powerfully on a baby's retina and send strong visual signals to the brain - the equivalent of a visual workout for the baby. It increases neurological connections in the brain and aids crucial cognitive development. A breastfeeding bra by Goddess has been on the US market for years for the same effect—visual stimulation. This is not a new idea. Babies are also more likely to be directly facing their mothers when feeding.
