Dear Lactnet Friends:

Here's a study:

“The infants in the skin-to-skin group stopped crying, became calmer, and
reached a drowsy state earlier than the infants in the cot group.

 The father can facilitate the development of the infant's pre-feeding
behavior in this important period of the newborn infant's life and should
thus be regarded as the primary caregiver for the infant during the
separation of mother and baby.”

    Birth  2007 Jun;34(2):105-14
