amitch17 17 Posted December 19, 2012 So I am having my second c section in march (first was an emergency). My surgeon said I would be ok to get the sleeve in June. Has anyone else been sleeved so close after having a baby! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicolanz 1,484 Posted December 19, 2012 I did 7 weeks after my csection! You should be fine 3 months out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amitch17 17 Posted January 29, 2013 How much help did you need once you were home? My son will also be 23 months when I go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicolanz 1,484 Posted January 29, 2013 None. My husband works nights so I was on my own. It was hard but doable. Just find ways to limit lifting your kids for a couple of weeks. I would feed my little one while he was laying in his boppy pillow. Or I'd put pillows under my arms when I held him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amitch17 17 Posted January 30, 2013 Ya I live in a condo with 3 storeys do that may be hard. I'm getting my fiancé to take two weeks off to help I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TxBritt 32 Posted February 5, 2013 I was just sleeved last week and I have a six month old and a two year old. I was actually cleared for surgery as long as I wasn't breast feeing at 6 weeks post c-section. We decided to wait until after January so my husband would have more vacation time. He and my mom have been taking care of me because I really have needed the help. I've had a hard time bending and I'm not allowed to lift either boy. Two year old is 30 lbs and the baby is 17lbs. It's really rough but I know I'll be a much better mommy in the long run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
