It would also be nice if you could have a meal together, that way you can feed her in the presence of her FM again to reinforce that you are a "safe" person for her. Of course, that isn't always possible. Just ask questions and take pictures of all of you together!
Good luck- let us know how it goes!!!  |
Oh, we did this without intending to! Jorge had a dirty diaper so FM changed him "one last time" and I came over and she was showing me how she tickles him and cleans various bits and pieces.
We were both kissing his belly and I was handing her wipes--it was sort of special for a dirty diaper!
