I babysit my niece. How long after tt and arm surgery before i can lift a baby. She is 1 year old?

I believe it is at least 6 weeks if you have the full TT with muscle repair. I had a TT yesterday w/o muscle repair and it sys no heavy lifting for 6-8 weeks.

Hi Mimilou...

How are you feeling? Has it been what you expected?

Thanks Mimi! I was thinking at least 4-6 weeks. How are you feeling? Hope you heal quickly!

About 6 weeks.

i have 4 kids, 2 of which are toddlers (2 & 3 YO).

they will go to my moms for the first 2 weeks, then come back home.

I'm trying to arrange to have someone come here while hubby goes to work for 8-4 that week, so far i have ONE day that someone is coming. my older kids get home around 3...so it will be 8-1 or so that i will have to handle them on my own (if i don't find someone for the other 3 days).

I am hoping that i can nap when they nap.

Hubby will take off the Friday because i have a follow up appointment (almost 3 hours away).

The following week he works evenings and has personal development days that he can take off if necessary.

I hope i didn't think i was going to be superwoman and in reality won't be able to take care of them!

My aunt will be starting chemo after they come home from my moms and my mom wants to be able to be with her, so as of now, it's not an option that they stay there.

sorry, i rambled. i guess i'm now doubting my plan!!!

yikes! 20 days to go!
