Hi, I have a 1 1/2 year old and a 4 year old. I had my surgery 3 weeks ago. My hubby took a week of work to help me with the kids. The first week is definitely the hardest but even then I was lifting the little one later on in the first week as sometimes you have no choice. Only on about the end of the second week was I able to lift him in and out of his cot. But as my hubby only had a week off work by the second week I was doing everything myself I even managed to drive as had to take my other little boy to school. I know everyone’s recovery is different but so far I’ve found mine a lot less painful than I imagined!!
