Not quite like wireless though, there has to be a latch on and suction, can’t just faceplant a baby on a boob.

But if you place a baby in the rough area (the boobs) they can manoeuvre themselves to the correct area.

This is long before any motor skills. It’s a primal instinct. Like holding their breath when submerged or grasping things placed in their hands.

Not even that, a newborn is able to crawl to the breast and start latching immediately after birth.

Yeah except they generally don’t. There’s a reason classes to learn how to breastfeed and lactation consultants exist.

And now I’m mentally comparing nipples to induction chargers. Thanks for the image, op!

its not wireless the tit is the wire. Wireless would be touching the mothers skin and the milk is just transfered to the baby.

transfered is also not a good way to say it, it would be like the baby has the ability to produce milk inside its body with the energy that is coming off the mothers skin. Something like that

Honestly it’s just a dumb analogy all the way down.

The way an infant acquires nutrition before birth, is entirely different to the way it does so after birth, and neither is remotely similar to “charging”.

Babies are fueled up like an internal combustion engine and produce lots of hazardous waste.
