What Babies Are Really Thinking When They Breastfeed

Ever wonder what babies are really thinking when they breastfeed? They always seem so blissed out to me! Maybe it's not complicated — maybe it's mostly "happy, happy, joy, joy" or something to that effect. But we thought it might be fun to imagine that we could do a little eavesdropping and hear the thoughts going through a baby's mind while they breastfeed. What are they really thinking? Here are our best guesses.

What do you think your baby is thinking — or feeling — while they breastfeed?
