I have seen a similar video presented by Anne-Marie Widstrom (a Swedish
midwife researcher) which also shows a baby getting to the breast unaided,
and also demonstrates a baby and mother in Russia, baby hadn't been feeding
well at all until it was unswaddled and put on mum's chest - tears from mum
(and audience) as baby managed to get to the breast unaided. I think it
showed a mum and baby in the bath together managing to do the same thing.
The video I saw had Swedish commentary, but the pictures really spoke for
themselves. Not sure how you would get hold of this video. Has anyone
else seen this?
