@ienwithani: yes I know it's a technique to prepare the baby for breastfeeding because they were not latched on yet. What confuses me is the words in the sentences: "baby's tongue wrap around the finger"? "Draw your finger in" means that the baby will suck your finger deeply?

It's already explained in the simplest terms.

@ienwithani ok now i get it. Would u mind trying explain "wrap around" in really simple English?
- Traditional Chinese (Taiwan)
@ienwithani so the whole sentence basically means that you could feel the baby's tongue touch your fingers(under your fingers) and you just put the fingers into his mouth?
