A Florida plastic surgeon has written about just that in "My Beautiful Mommy," a picture book due out April 28 that tries to calm the fears of kids with parents getting tummy tucks, breast enhancement procedures and nose jobs.

Dr. Michael Salzhauer said so many moms brought kids to their appointments that he was motivated to stock up on lollipops in his Bal Harbour, Fla., office. In "My Beautiful Mommy," he explains mommy's recuperation, changing look and desire for plastic surgery.

"Many parents don't explain to their kids what's going on," said the father of four, with his fifth child on the way. "Children are very perceptive. You can't hide a major surgery from them. When mom goes down for two weeks after a tummy tuck it affects them."

Wow. I have never had plastic surgery, and never thought of how it may have to be handled by the kids. What do you all think of a book of this type, and parents having plastic surgery that could keep them down for a while?

I think it's unfair that they can have it and I can't... my kids are in their 30's, I don't think they'd even need the book!

can you imagine being three or four, and mommy comes home looking like a mummy?

Yeah, that really would be scary. Hopefully they don't let people go home that soon do they? Hum, what do I know, maybe they do.

We don't have kids at home but I am sure it would drive the dog crazy. She just sits and barks at Mrs. Qtman when she has her CPAP maching hooked up and the face mask on. I can picture her reaction to all the bandages and such.

Oh they do. This guy could probably make more on this little book than his practice. A lot of the time I feel like the minority at my gym, in my neighborhood, and even among moms in my kids' little Baptist school (including the Pastor's wife) being about the only person who hasn't had work done! I have to admit it's tempting.
