Bub pats me while breast feeding

Alexia • Due JUL24👶🏻💙 | ARP22👶🏻💙

Usually when he firsts starts he pats me between the boobs. 🍊✋🍊

How common is this? Any other mums relate? Does your bub do something different?

He has also played with the other nipple while feeding and when I was doing some googling I found “'Many babies twiddle the opposite nipple while breastfeeding, this actually causes a release of the hormone oxytocin, which increases milk ...”

So I was thinking maybe it’s another form of stimulating oxytocin. 🤔
