Good point, Gonneke.  I also have a comment to make about this issue, and it actually came straight from my daughter's mouth when she had her first baby.  When she told the nurse she didn't want her baby bathed, the nurse told her they wouldn't be able to touch the baby without be gloved.  My daughter said, "That's OK.  I don't really want any of you touching my baby without gloves on anyway, bath or no bath."  
   
  I don't know where that girl gets her sassiness.  ;-)

  What I would like to see is any wel researched literature that will convince me of the real bad hazards of a wet or dry not-bathed baby...
Why trying to prove the normal, better prove that the intervention is save and benefitial. For the newborn child, that is.
Warmly,

Jan, I have heard that once the baby is dry they are no longer a risk to the 
staff. Now, I do not have this in writing but I sure would like it. The 
premises sure makes sense.
Can anyone else add any literature or research to back either premises?
