when did human mothers become so social they trusted others to hold their babies? ^^^^ They trusted midwife/sisters to catch the baby when it was born, which is holding the baby. So, somebody else held the baby before the mother did. The notion of possession and "ownership" and individuality of the baby implied by the above question is probably an anachronism from the present projected back upon those societies which were much more social in consciousness than ours is. Sociality is the critical and central characteristic of the human species at its inception. It differentiates us from ancestoral species.
