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.

premises sure makes sense.
Can anyone else add any literature or research to back either premises?
