I've noticed that if I'm relaxed/sleepy while nursing I have a higher rate of success of getting him to sleep, whereas if I'm just "there" or anxiously thinking of what needs to be done he won't fall asleep as quickly/easily/if at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536840 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 14:28:02 +0000 winniebee 536840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually think it's the sucking.....b/c my son is not breastfed and falls asleep at the bottle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536834 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 14:26:26 +0000 mrsjazz 536834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LivsMama: Hysterical! The milk coma is still funny, even after 9 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536828 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 14:25:24 +0000 Mrsbells 536828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think its a combination of the warmth, being held, the milk comes out at just the right temperature, plus they can hear your heartbeat.. my 9 month oldjust gets this look of bliss on her face haha and starts stroking my chest. I will definitely miss it when we wean </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536825 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 14:23:51 +0000 birdofafeather 536825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LivsMama: ha! That's awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536820 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 14:22:24 +0000 LivsMama 536820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was wondering too. I finally got my 19 month old weaned. She still wants it though, when shes really upset. Anyways, I brought her into bed with us this morning and she was upset. I got her calmed down and to sleep between us, and went back to sleep. I woke up a bit later, and there she was, laying belly to belly, holding my shirt and bra down, PASSED OUT with my boob in her mouth. I was like "what a little opportunist!" lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536699 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:31:36 +0000 mediagirl 536699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mmmmm warm, cozy, warm milk...... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536675 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:25:28 +0000 T.H.O.U. 536675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When they are little it for sure is whatever in the milk that makes them so relaxed but it is also the comfort. </p> <p>I know now my 18 month old can't be getting much milk because I go over 24 hours without nursing her. But when she asks for it (only at bedtime) she immediately calms down and you can tell it helps her relax. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536665 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:22:43 +0000 sorrycharlie 536665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I heard there's something "in the water" too! like @runsyellowlites said! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536642 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:15:33 +0000 Mrs. Pen 536642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Warmth, security, comfort food, love, snuggles..... DS doesn't really nurse to sleep anymore but now he can "ask" for it by burying his face in my chest or plunging his hand in my shirt haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-think-it-is-about-the-boob-that-makes-babiestoddlers-pass-out#post-536636 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:12:55 +0000 chopsuey 536636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: yep!

Warmth and feel? Lol<br /> I can always count on nursing to get my nap resistant 22 month old to pass out. </p>
