However, one little side effect from the surgery is what I will refer to now as the "mamma's boy" effect. Micah now clings to me like I am going to leave him forever if I am gone for even a second. He wants me to do everything for him - feed him, hold him while he's eating, take him to the bathroom and "help" him go potty, dress him, etc... He doesn't want daddy to do any of this right now and has a complete meltdown if I cannot help him do the littlest thing. We figure that he was probably a little traumatized by being in the hospital and just needs that added security right now, so I am happy to oblige (but hoping this pattern doesn't continue on forever) :) Little man has been a little more emotional of late, but understandably so. I am just so thankful that the worst is officially over!

So glad he is recovered. The "higher" voice does go away with time. We had a friend who did it last year and he was really high and whiny but it did become deeper. It was hard on the mom though cause her "baby" didn't sound the same. So hang in there.
