Establishing a bond between a mother and her newborn is essential for the infant to grow and thrive in the mother's care. Hospital staff can promote the creation of this bond by providing continuous support during labor, by placing the newborn skin-to-skin on the mothers chest immediately after delivery until the infant latches on for the first feeding, by encouraging continued breast feeding and by keeping her mother and infant always together in the first hours and days after delivery.
Even in case where the mother initially rejects her infant, sensitive medical personnel can provide an environment which allows the bond between mother and infant to begin.
母亲与新生儿建立联系对于婴儿在母亲照料下成长和茁壮成长至关重要。医院工作人员可以通过在分娩期间提供持续支持、在分娩后立即将新生儿皮肤对皮肤地放在母亲胸部直到婴儿首次 latch 进行首次喂养、鼓励持续母乳喂养以及在分娩后的最初几个小时和几天让母亲和婴儿始终在一起，来促进这种联系的建立。
即使在母亲最初拒绝其婴儿的情况下，敏感的医务人员也可以提供一个能让母婴关系开始建立的环境。
