rooming-in
Baby stays bedside
Rooming-in is a hospital practice where a newborn stays in the mother's room rather than in a separate nursery.
The arrangement allows constant contact between mother and infant, facilitating bonding and breastfeeding: The hospital encourages rooming-in for all healthy newborns.
Most maternity wards now treat rooming-in as the default.
