Do you wanna hold the baby?

Yesterday at my DD's school, her teacher brought up her newborn baby for the kids to meet. She asked me if I wanted to hold the baby? "Me, with one arm hold the baby?"- Is what I thought. When going to public places a lot of times I put my affected hand in my pocket, that way it doesn't (hopefully) look as out of place.

It's Friday, the last Friday I will have to get up early for a while. Schools out Tuesday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :Clap-Hands: :Clap-Hands:

Hey Amy, sounds like you are really looking forward to the holidays, hope you have a lot of activities planned to share with Maddy.

 

If you can hold the newborn that is lovely. I have a friend who has a "useless arm" (her words) and she says in a happy voice:"Wait till I sit down" and then holds the baby in the crook of her good arm, smiling a big grin all the while. Maybe you need to practice with a doll first, but it should be possible.

 

Hope your holidays are happy and full of sumnshine.

Sue,

What a great idea!!! I can hold babies like my nephew but with some non-family's I feel dangerous or anxious about holding them.

Thanks for your ray of sunshine!
