As a mother of three boys, all breastfed for a long time, this
headline grabbed my attention immediately:

Could the 'cuddle hormone' make you (think you) love your mom?
http://www.latimes.com/health/boostershots/behavior/la-heb-oxytocin-mom-20101129,0,653122.story

Apparently this small study did not include having been breastfed as a
variable.  But wouldn't that be a good follow-up study!
