<< I suspect the mechanism may be the same as
with digit sucking. It really made me wonder about the breastfed babies we
all have known who just hang on the breast and want to nurse all night. Are
they using the breast the same way? I never have believed organisms do
things just for the hell of it. There is almost always a reason for
behavior. >>
Perhaps this is also related to those Michelin-baby legged, doing-great,
breastfed babes who finish nursing, are full, take themselves off, refuse to
go back to the breast until they are ready, and then pop their thumb in their
mouth at different times when they are drowsy or actually sleeping. These
babies grow amazingly well, look like little Budhhas as infants... just
musing,
