amitch17 17 Posted January 24, 2013 Do I'm having my daughter on feb 26th and my son is 2 in July. I will be getting sleeved the beginning of June. Anyone else had small children after getting sleeved? How much help should I expect (fiancé works 12 hour shifts nights and days). Should he take time off to help with lifting them into bed and what not? If so how long would you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lander 74 Posted January 24, 2013 I was told no lifting for the first few weeks after surgery, and honestly, I found it a burden to take my large purse. I think you don't want to be carrying a baby or toddler too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMannCPhT 7 Posted January 24, 2013 I had an 11lb baby and a 38 lb 4yr old at tge time when i was sleeved. it was well into my 2nd week before my baby could sit with me for more than a few mins because she was so wiggly I would tense up to keep her balanced. But on week by the end of week three I could reach and pick her up from her bed but I couldn't bend down and get her swing. Idk if this helps but that was my experience, bath time was very interesting lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
