    I have 17 month old twins! Hubby has a week off work so will be around go 9 days total & then I’ll have to do it. My boys are quite happy entertaining themselves & I’m going to do nappy changes on the floor & keep lifting to a minimum. That said I don’t have a choice as they are my babies. Will anyone else be around to help you?

    I have a 7 month old booked in on the 31st, other half having 10 days off but surgeon said I should be fine to lift him after 7/10 days. I also went for consultation at transform and there surgeon said I wouldn’t be able to lift him for a month! I’m hoping this wont be the case xx

    Also I had a lot of info contradiction between the nurse (at my pre op) and PC, PC did say a week to drive and lift and the nurse said 2 weeks to drive and 6 weeks to lift. X
