touch is important for development of new borns

did you know that touching and carrying new borns are very important for their development? i saw this in a tv show a couple of days ago. i never thought that touch is a major factor that contributes to the development of new borns. doctors say that babies just stops growing when these factors are absent. it's like they are able to feel that they are not wanted and not loved. in some hospitals, they try to find volunteers to touch and carry new born babies that are abandoned or has no one claiming for them.
