hi all
i am looking for research around the potential impact that the routine bathing of newborns may have on the initiation of breastfeeding. i saw an article a few years ago on this subject and i can no longer find it, i have a doctor at my local hospital who is very irritated that some of her clients are refusing the bath, and would love some research to back up their refusals.
thanks for any help you can offer
