How was ur pain? And the lifting?

Pain wasn't bad, but everyone has different procedures. I didn't have a drain which I can tell from reading causes pain.

They found a hernia while doing my sleeve. That part if the surgery hurt MUCH worse than my sleeve and I was ok to go after say 4. I went to my 9 year old step daughters last soccer game that day and walked up and down the sidelines. I was up to shopping after that and had a good day.

My husband left for school 2 weeks after my surgery and it was me taking care of 3 kids. My baby girl just turned 1 when I had surgery and I didn't have any problems picking her up when I was 4 days post op. She weighs about 18 lbs and I also continued to breastfeed her after surgery :) My 2 older kids I didn't pick up until I was about a month post op and that was only for a couple of seconds. I don't think I had any lifting restrictions.

My doctors orders were to not lift anything heavier than 10lbs for two weeks after surgery... I was picking up my 10 month old pretty much my 5th day out without any pain. Just start training the baby now to crawl to you and lift ONLY with your arms and not your core and it shouldn't hurt at all.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
