Breast Crawl


During unmedicated childbirth, natural biochemicals are created that "prime" the baby's brain so that he/she can survive well outside the womb.

The natural endorphins, oxytocin and much more that the mother's body makes cross the placenta and saturate the baby's brain and awaken areas that are important for bonding.

Below is a video showing a newborn latching to the breast after the birth.

The baby is handled roughly once born, so ignore this part at the beginning.

The rest of the video is lovely.
