The present series of studies, made between 1972 and 1975, has shown that existing routines in the maternity ward, such as weighing the baby before and after breast feeding, can inhibit the establishment of lactation and increase the number of early failures. Giving information to the father in the maternity ward may be an important factor in promoting breast-feeding, as judged from the findings on duration of breast feeding and from the mothers' comments. The greatest effect observed was that of skin-to-skin and suckling contact during the first hour after delivery, which increased the median duration of breast feeding by 2 1/2 months. These findings illustrate that existing routines during the neonatal period should be re-examined as to their influence in promoting or inhibiting breast feeding.
在1972年至1975年间开展的本系列研究表明，产科病房现有的常规做法，比如在母乳喂养前后给婴儿称重，可能会抑制泌乳的建立并增加早期泌乳失败的数量。根据母乳喂养持续时间的研究结果以及母亲们的评论判断，在产科病房向父亲提供信息可能是促进母乳喂养的一个重要因素。观察到的最大影响是分娩后第一小时内的皮肤接触和哺乳接触，这使母乳喂养的中位持续时间增加了2个半月。这些研究结果表明，应重新审视新生儿期的现有常规做法对母乳喂养的促进或抑制作用。
