I wonder about dads doing skin to skin--sometime after that first breastfeed, of course. I wonder if dad-sts could be used as an intervention in populations where dads are less likely to be involved in their children's lives. What if dad-sts increased contact with the children throughout the children's lives? Anybody want to do a study?
