Thus, routine care in birthing environments should include the support of early mother-infant STS contact that occurs mediately after birth and lasts at least until after the first breastfeeding(Forster& McLachlan, 2007). Separation should not be part of routine care, even after a cesarean, as the mother can provide the ideal environment for successful newborn adaptation to the extrautering environment. Further research that focuses on the effects of STS on infants born by cesarean would enhance our understanding of the intervention among this target population however, the intervention has considerable benefits be cause STS contact requires minimal financial resource is not associated with adverse effects among healthy infants, shows an overall positive effect on breastfeeding, and appears to improve newborn stabilization during transition
