2. Its also means of increasing milk production in mother; more sucking produces more milk
3. It’s also a way of giving salivary feedback to mother as to what baby needs; whether it’s more water content, whether it’s more fat, whether baby needs more immunity fighting power, all this is sensed by mothers bring through baby’s suck
