It took 20 mins to 50 mins for the babies to crawl up and be sucking beautifully.   It was also interesting that babies who were removed from the mother's abdomen, bathed, measured and then put back did self attach but half of them had a faulty sucking pattern.   Gosh when I think of the babies from the days gone by that were born from choloformed mums ...........sheesh I can't bear to think.   regards Di Gardner ----- Original Message ----- From: Mary Murphy To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Sent: Tuesday, April 25, 2006 1:58 PM Subject: RE: [ozmidwifery] BF videos Jo, how long does it take the baby to find the breast and begin feeding?  MM   I don't know what it's called, but the one where the freshly newborn baby crawls up the mother's abdomen and attaches itself to the breast without any help is awesome. Made me cry!
