Infants respond to the sound of voices.Because attachment involves a reciprocal interchange,observing the interaction between parent and infant is very important.Separation of the parent and infant does not encourage parent-infant attachment.Educating the parent in infant care techniques is important,but the manner in which a diaper is taped is not relevant and does not enhance parent-infant interactions.Parent-infant attachment involves touching,holding,and cuddling.It is appropriate for a father to want to hold the infant as the baby sleeps.
