The Today Programme I think. DP was telling me something about it but I was half asleep. Anyone catch it? Sounded interesting. Can't find any links on the website.

Probably in the papers review, Broc - there are a few of them covering a research paper that shows breastfeeding stimulates biochemical responses in mothers, which promote bonding and attachment via an increase in 'trust' from oxytocin.

Press Association have the story here:
