century, Semmelweis discovered how it could be prevented with improved hygie
WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ
nic practices. WQ

WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ
ong factor in the decrease of home births and increase of hospital births. Other
WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ

C As research began to identify the benefits of early extended parent-
WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ
infant contact, parents began to insist that the infant remain with them. This grad
WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ WQ
