Some infants lose concentration when feeding at the breast and can't seem to settle in for a prolonged suckle.

The Teddy Bear Titty Bar is a modified maternity bra that is covered in teddy bear fur. Slightly above and to the side of the wearer's nipple - that is, pretty much where baby's eyeline is situated - there is a cloth Teddy Bear with big ears attached, so that baby can grab the ears with both hands and really get down to business.

Harlow's famous experiment http://www.a2zpsych...ologists/HARLOW.HTM
The inspiration for this idea [ConsulFlaminicus, Dec 06 2005]

Actually, no, that's a fairly well established fetish (lusting after people in animal costumes). But I do think this risks profound disturbance as the child grows up.

If the baby doesn't want to suckle, don't sweat it. It'll come around when it's hungry again. But I am surprised - you never especially struck me as the nurturing type.

I keep getting this Gary Larsonesque image of all these animals wandeing round with cocktails chatting each other up.

When the kid turns 18 and starts drinking beer at the frat party, he won't be able to do it without his teddy bear strapped around it. The girls might think its cute for about 20 minutes but after that he can forget about getting laid. If he gets an opportunity to get lucky he can blow the whole situation as soon as he takes out the teddy bear. Can you imagine the following scenario:

Girl: Where are you going? Guy: Umm.. I need to get.. Girl: Don't worry. I have protection. Guy: I need my teddy bear!
