Many thanks, Melissa, for sharing Linda Smith's technique for helping
mother feel what baby might feel like.

This is just the sort of sharing tha tLACTNET was designed to assist to occur.

Another other great ways to help parents see babies as people rather than
as demanding monsters?  Now's the time!!!
