Harry Harlow was aware of the controversy post World War II on the role of biological instincts in the development of conduct and emotions and, in response, he presented his "Babyhood and Motherhood project". In this work Harlow bred and raised infant rhesus monkeys in isolation to be their human influence and keep them from spreading infections. Harlow wanted to understand their natural behavior without another’s influence, so he gave the monkeys two inanimate mothers., one made of wood and rubber

development, co-sleeping serves as a contributing factor that encourages breastfeeding. Breastfeeding is the most natural and effective method of feeding infants due to its long-lasting beneficial impact on their overall development. Breastfeeding not only grants numerous health advantages for infants and their mothers, but also promotes positive mother-infant attachment and physical contact. Interestingly, nutrients found in breastmilk are peerlessly unique that they cannot be produced by any other types

Although it may sound as if I sleep on a construction site, I actually sleep in my queen size bed along with my three and six year old sons. I began co-sleeping with each of them at birth.

But now I find myself too often tired and

Concepts Statement, I planned to go over the Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) which is the leading cause of death among infants between 1 week and 1 year of age.

According to the textbook of Understanding Your Health, sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), occurs when some mothers who

Low Birth Weight Babies in a Postnatal Ward” was written by Sarah Gregson and Jonathan Blacker and was published in the British Journal of Midwifery. This study was the first in the UK to investigate Kangaroo care for stable low birth weight infants and infants at risk for hypoglycemia in a transitional care/ postnatal ward setting. The purpose of this cohort study was to compare the effects of Kangaroo care (skin-to-skin contact with mother) on length of stay, feeding, and parent satisfaction for

mothers in order to restore the meaning of childhood. Not only did it help mothers better understand how to handle their situations, but also decreased the infant mortality rate. The progressive reformers analyzed that parents provided poor diets for their children causing malnutrition and diarrhea. This was a huge cause to the death of infants and toddlers. The Bureau hoped to educate families to weaken the child mortality rate and hopefully create a better understanding of how a child should be

the infant mortality rate (IMR) is a reliable indicator of a country's civilization and focus on the welfare of its citizens (Berger 2001). Although global infant mortality rates has shown steady improvement over the past century, many developing countries continue to experience inordinately high rates compared to the world levels; surprisingly, though, even the United States which claims to have one of the best healthcare systems in the world continues to experience relatively high infant mortality
