Talking to toddler Mom’s Surgery
Hi all,
I am having health issues and will be having surgery soon. I’m not sure how to talk to my 2.5 year old about it. I want her to be prepared and know what to to expect i.e. she can’t climb on me, I won’t be able to pick her up or play on the floor like I usually do for a while. But what is age appropriate to tell her? I don’t want to scare her… but want to be honest. What are your thoughts? Has anyone had to do this before?
Thanks!
i just had a c section a few weeks ago i just told my son i have a big booboo and he has to be careful with mommy and to be gentle and it took him a little bit to not climb/ jump all over me. with the picking him up i told him mommy can’t rn but daddy/ grandma can help you. although my son doesn’t really like to be picked up too much anymore anyways
