When the baby is born you put it to the breast and with careful manipulation get it to suck on the nipple(and as much of the surrounding area as possible so not to cause PAINFUL cracks) which causes the pre-milk substance Colostrem to be releases which is what the baby will drink till the actual milk comes in.
So yeah, basically, the baby just 'sucks on your boob'.
