Suckle
Definition:
(n.) A teat.
(v. t.) To give suck to; to nurse at the breast.
(v. i.) To nurse; to suck.
Example Sentences:

(8) Insulin, which slightly but significantly, depressed the level in 40 day old rats, increased it in suckling ones, as does prednisolone.
(9) From these results, we conclude that opiate peptides are released in response to the suckling stimulus in the cynomolgus monkey and that they mediate the effects of suckling on PRL secretion in both gonadal-intact and agonadal cynomolgus monkeys.
(10) Mechanisms are suggested whereby rudimentary appetitive programs already encoded along facing dendrite membrane pairs within the specialized intrafascicular milieu, may trigger and control nipple search and suckling in the still blind and only primitively mobile neonate.
