The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) used to go to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) with their children, so that they could receive the Prophet's blessing and ask him to supplicate for them. Out of kindness and noble morals, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to meet them cheerfully and with a smile. Umm Qays (may Allah be pleased with her) came with her son, who was still being breastfed and had not yet reached the age of eating solid food. Out of his mercy, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) took the boy and sat him on his lap. The boy urinated on the Prophet's clothes, thereupon, he called for some water. He sprinkled some water on the spot of the urine, but he did not wash it. This ruling is exclusive to the male suckling.
