That's a really good point actually FJ. I looked into it before DS was born and have watched lots of videos etc but to be honest, I wasn't feeling well enough after his birth to try it. He pretty much attached beautifully with very little help from me and we never looked back.

But reading your post, I really agree that just leaving a new baby there to 'do it's thing' ...I dunno, I think I'd feel weird and would want to snuggle too
