[quote=Anonymous]I had a mascetomy recently and so talked to my kids about how I couldn't pick them up or hug them the way I did before, but we could hug in new ways like holding hands. Can you deflect to hand holding when you are out and about? Make sure you offer special time, like "after I finish XYZ, we can read a book together, can you pick out a book for us?" You will have tons of practice juggling competing interests when you have more than one kid and need to prepare your first child to be a sibling.[/quote]
