...In one study, mother rats were given the opportunity to press a bar and get a squirt of cocaine or press a bar and get a rat pup to suck their nipples...Those oxytocin squirts in the brain outscored a snort of cocaine every time.
The quote is from the book The Female Brain by Louann Brizedine and I found it on this blog. The bond between a mother and her infant is very stong, stronger than cocaine even. This points to the speical bond between Mary and Jesus.

I am a breastfeeding mother and this is very easy for me to believe. Even when I am feeling a little down when I breast feed, I get this sense of energy and start to feel great. I have always wanted to do a study on postpartum comparing mothers who breast feed vs. mothers who bottle feed. Then determine what hormone is released during breast feeding that causes the natural high (as I like to call it).
My wife is a breastfeeding mother right now as well. Oxytocin is the hormone released during breastfeeding. The study would be interesting. Thanks for commenting.
that is something i can understand! i used to be a regular cocaine user for 7 years, i stopped when i found out i was pregnant unexpectedly. i breast-fed my baby for 8 months until i returned to work, and her first tooth appeared, and she'd started pulling at my top which i felt was a sign she was now too old for it (think "little britain"!)
well, i found breast-feeding MUCH harder to quit than cocaine was! i missed it so much i was rather shocked at how emotional i felt about it!
i dont crave cocaine but i do crave oxytocin, i dont blame the rats for choosing it!
It is a very special topic for ladies. Now a days most of the ladies are ashamed for doing yhis for their infants. But it helps the child to grow well think well and evrything be safe. So follow this those who are reading this..
