my DD was born looking for the breast!! so funny when they held her up to put her on my chest and there she was rooting around for it! LOL!

what we did was have her lie on my chest for skin to skin (somewhere during transition i ripped all my clothes off...dont remember doing it but there you go!) and she lay there in a bit of perplexed shock, i seriously think she was saying 'WTF just happened ppl??!!'. after awhile i noticed that she started moving her head like i had seen in the b/f video shown at the b/f class and so we sat up and i gently showed her the breast to get a smell of it and she clamped straight on. DH took a pic cause it was amazing how she knew what to do (i had very little idea LOL!).

so although we didnt do a breast crawl i would like to think that she found her own way there and there was certainly no rush to get there. ITH.
