Kids/babys After Sleeve

I Am really nervous about my children after getting sleeved! I have a 7, 3, 2 yr old! How long will I have to hold off holding them?

My dh will only have a few days off so will a few days be sufficient before I'm doing everything on my own again?

My 7 (almost 8) year old is a huge help always but the other 2 are still " babies " that NEED momma...lol

What do you guys think?

My surgeon said not to lift anything over 10 lbs. for 8 weeks. perhaps you can have someone come over and help you with the kids for the first few weeks and have the little ones crawl on your lap so you can hug them and tend to their needs. Take it one day at a time. :)
