Sharing Mama's Lap





It's not easy being a big brother and learning to share Mama. We've been working on the transition, though, and Haridas is learning how to be a great big brother. He loves Navin almost a little too much...I have to stop him from constantly touching and kissing him! But during the first week, Haridas was so sad that he couldn't sit on my lap because I was nursing the newborn. Then when Navin was asleep, I held Haridas in my lap and we both cried together. I could feel everything he was going through and how much he missed my full attention. I just held him and reassured him that I love him so much. In time, he'll be so thankful to have a friend to play with all the time...it's just hard at first. It's all becoming normal now after 2 weeks, and I've showed Haridas how I can fit both of them in my lap together!
