Why does your toddler tweak, twist, or pull the other nipple while they're nursing? 😩 It’s called twiddling - and while it’s natural, it can feel overwhelming, even painful (I couldn't bear it!) 🙈 Twiddling serves two purposes: 1. It’s soothing (like a comfort object). 2. It can stimulate your milk supply naturally, by sending signals to your body to make more milk.

BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT on Instagram: "Has your baby started twiddling? Give this hack a try! What is twiddling, you ask? Twiddling is when a baby or toddler reaches over to the opposite nipple that they’re feeding on and they twist, pull and maybe pinch the nipple to their heart’s content while you are slowly pushed to the brink of insanity. Older babies naturally begin to “twiddle” the other nipple and physiologically, it can help to elicit the release of the hormone oxytocin, which is responsib

Naisha Ruzensky on Instagram: "Toddlers who “twiddle” while nursing deserve their own category of chaos. 🥴😂 If you know, you KNOW. One hand peacefully nursing… the other hand? Pinching. Rolling. Searching. Aggressively tweaking the other nipple like they’re trying to tune an old radio. And somehow they do it with laser focus. The wild part? They’re not being mischievous.

Evelyn on Instagram: "Both my babies have been twiddlers🤣 I could nurse for a few more years but twiddling is about to mentally take me out 🤣🤣 If you’re not sure what twiddling is, it’s when a breastfed baby exercises their *fine motor skills* on the opposite nipple than the one they are drinking from!
