# The twenty-minute thing is interesting, though. Isn't that the length of
time Sears suggests holding a baby before putting him down? I think I
remember it is the length of a certain part of the sleep cycle #

I think it also has something to do with CCK hormone (cholecystokinine
(sp?), which is released both in the mom and the baby while the baby is
suckling at the breast, and the CCK having two peaks, first one right at
the end of the feeding, and the second about 20 min later. Try the
archives, I am sure it is there :)
