I think some of this fussing with the baby is eliminated in hospitals
without a nursery. Sacred Heart in Eugene, Oregon has just their level III
NICU and an extra nursery for some overflow. The routine, though, is that
babies stay with their mom and AREN'T taken to the nursery for routine
procedures.
