There is another factor that could make this baby want to nurse a lot
when it's really cold out. Really cold weather tends also to be very
dry, low humidity. That is compounded by the fact that heating in homes
also dries out the air. So the little guy may be cold and dehydrated,
not dangerously so, just enough to be uncomfortable and want to nurse a
lot to warm up and to get more fluids.
