It may seem hard to believe, but when placed on their mother's chest after birth, many newborns can make their way to the breast and latch on without much assistance.
Studies have shown that most healthy and physiologically normal newborns can find their mother's breasts all on their own. This instinct-driven movement is fueled by the need to feed and is referred to as the "Breast Crawl".
The time we generally expect a baby to start crawling is around the six to ten months old mark, but, given the right incentive, researchers have found that a motivated newborn can crawl as soon as they leave the warm confines of their mother's womb.
