Bobbing for Boob!

So this title is very important for breastfeeding Moms.  It can save you a lot of stress in attempting to decode what your baby wants from you.  Babies bob for food, literally.  No matter how young, a breast fed baby has the instinct to search for that nipple when hungry.  They literally take their heads and start bobbing, like in a pecking motion, some also nuzzle and dig.  They generally do this before they cry and get upset, assuming the cry is food related.  When I heard another breastfeeding mom use the statment 'bobbing for boobies' it really stuck.  I had a little chuckle and then I could not stop thinking about it.  That is when I realized how many women probably have not noticed their babies doing this.  Until I heard the expression and took note of my own breastfeeding baby, I hadn't realized how important noticing this was.  It changed my world.
