N/A Stress. Intervention 1: In evening shift of first day and before nesting position, the researcher videotapes behaviors for 20 minutes continued.

After seven days nest is removed and 20 minutes recording of infants will be done, in such before. The researcher review the films for count and comparing total stress motor behaviors. Intervention 2: In the control group, in the evening shift of first day, the researcher videotapes behaviors for 20 minutes continued.
