I'm just relating my personal experience here so please skip if you are
after good science.

Due to a need for surgery for me a few days after birthing my third baby,
this precious bundle that had never been out of my sight had to go to the
newborn nursery. While other mothers were putting notes on their baby's
cots saying "no dummies" or "no comps" (this was 18 years ago!), I put a
sign on my baby's cot saying "no crying".
Not a soul would have been game to give my baby a comp or dummy, but I
wasn't so convinced that they wouldn't leave her to cry.

I can't understand how anyone in a caring profession, such as nursing,
midwifery or medicine, can handle the sound of a crying baby and not do
something about it.
