my stitch came out so it was just an open hole on one side. wasnt much bleeding just a little. doc didnt think it was too bad so he just put butterfly strip on it to help close it back up. but it def hurt!
i had no choice. i carried my baby in the day i came home😂 and picked him and my 1 year up constantly 1 year old wasnt walking yet. did rip stitches. so i would say no more than 10 pounds until 6 weeks like most doc recommend. if you have to you can always just take baby out of the carseat😊
