Since you're already able to touch him – score one. /Underneath his chin with a couple of fingers – do this several times a day for a couple of days. Then slide or three fingers under his chin between his legs don't pick up just let them feel the fingers again several times a day for a couple of days. Then slide your fingers between his legs left him off of the floor for just a second and putting back down repeat repeat repeat. Then lift him up for a few seconds repeat repeat repeat. Lifting up bring him towards your belly hold for a minute but I'm back in the van but I'm down repeat repeat repeat. Kind of getting the picture? Slowly and steadily. You got this!
