"In addition to melatonin production being greater during the regular
  nighttime sleep cycle and even a protection against breast cancer
  (women who are awake and working night shifts have higher rates of
  breast cancer),"

So, maybe the protective benefits of bf'ing and the need for mothers to be awake in the night are interdependent.
