I haven't been sleeved yet but I had 3 kids and my youngest will be 12 months old the day I get sleeved. My husband will be helping me that first week. I gave birth to our 3rd child was he was deployed and while the recovery sucked I learned that I can handle anything if I just take my time. A month after I get my surgery my husband will be leaving for training for about 6 weeks. I'm sure you will be fine just don't over work yourself :)

I have a 9,7, and two year old I had a few small complications so I was back in the hospital for a week I can't do everything like carry my toddler or give baths but, I have a mil who has been helping and a hubby who has been great. If you have a toddler that you need to transport your gonna need help.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
