B. G. Jefferis and J. L. Nichols, Searchlights on Health — Ten Health Rules for Babies Cut Death Rate in Two (1919)
“ Every mother should get daily out-door exercise. It means better health for her babies.8. Every baby should be "mothered" more and mauled less. Babies thrive on cuddling but they can get along on a lot less kissing.9. Don't amuse or play with your baby too much. Its regular daily routine is all the stimulation its little brain needs at first.10. Don't let too many different people take care of the baby. Even members of the same family make a baby nervous if they fuss around him too much. ”
