I had my surgery on 6/17 in Mexico. I feel great, no pain, no trouble drinking and keeping it down, but I only lost 6 lbs so far.shouldn't it be more? I see people that lost 10-15 lbs even more in a week. Also I have a 5 month old baby who was 3 months premature so he is actually 2 months and weighs 14 lbs. doctor told me I can't pick him up for a month, only hold him sitting down if someone places him on my lap. It is very difficult not to pick him up, my mom is watching him during the day until my husband comes home from work but I feel terrible that I can't help him at night. Should I really wait that long, or could I pick him up already? Please help...
