-- any csection mamas able to pick up there toddler after your csection.? if not can you please give me some things you did do to make the situation easier or what you did to care for your toddler after your csection.? thanks ♡
@tipsymermaid yes I'm high risk so they do 2 stress test a week and a weekly ultrasound , never thought I'd get so many ultrasounds lol but I'm definitely not complainin 😊
@jellygodmother it's like this every other day here smh , and yea there old enuff to be self sufficient but they go visit alot with their dad and my littlest one is just all over me lol guess bec I am pregnant I'm not so sure she just got to be this way recently I guess that's why I'm so nervous .. but we will figure it out we always do 😉
Yeah she’s being kind of ridiculous. I’m worried about about taking care of one toddler and a newborn when I have my next! I can’t imagine taking care of more. Are your other kiddos at least old enough to be self sufficient? I’d lose my mind 🤣
@tipsymermaid true its just a difficult situation rn , and tbh no not really its just the bigger I get the more my csection area feels numb lol it's crazy that might be y it doesn't hurt but then again I have days where its really tender too .. I'm scared considering my obgyn told me with my 5th that I could die if I had another baby 🙄😕
How old is your oldest? They’ll probably be able to help a bit at least with the other kids so you can focus on resting and healing up. That’s gotta be rough though, and I can’t imagine having 6 c-sections. Does your scar hurt??
@tipsymermaid phew ok good bec as u probably read I'm not in the mood lol and it's not that I need tips I just wanted proof pretty much to show this crazy ass that you cant pick up and 20 pound child after a major surgery so that's why I made this post like this so she could stop actin like she done it when its really almost impossible to do that after bein literally gutted open , and this bein my 6th one in the same scar tissue is probably going to hurt worse than the other 5 did ( somethin else she doesn't think about ) but no I dont have no help at home after mine that's why I was tryin to stress how I'm worried about how ima do it bec with my others I had help but this times it's all on me and noone seems to give a shit but its okay they are my babys and it's my responsibility I get that its just the point, where are the people with genuine hearts anymore.?
@momof3cuties right I can take care of her all but just picking her up .. I'm not going to be silly and try too either lol , she just turned one so she's still on the small side and cant climb up on things yet 😕🙄 but I was thinking maybe I could get her a steppin stool to help her get up as I hold her hand 🤔😏 .. I'm sure I will figure it out but she just started walkin so she's everywhere lol just a little nervous as it's all new every single time but thank you so much for your reply 😊😊
But I was able to pick up my son probably 1-2 weeks after my csection. He understood I had a booboo on my belly and couldn’t lift him up because it hurt me so that made it pretty easy. My husband was also able to be home about 8 days and help, hopefully you’ll have someone to be there to help you!
No I’m honestly curious what other tips you’d need after having 6 c-sections of your own lol I’m not sure what else I could offer since I’ve only had 2.
I wouldn't pick my son up but I didn't everything he needed (hubby is a trucker gone 7-12days) I would sit down and let him climb up by me. Any help you get will be good. Good luck
@skyee.niicole4, she sounds like a child. 🙄. And their relationship should have anything to do with another grown adult. I’m sorry!
Your daughter will adjust quicker than you think. She may only be a little over a year, but, if you can’t pick her up, she’ll realize. She learn that she will just snuggle more with you when you’re sitting or laying down.
It really does take a village, and for the first 2 weeks it would be nice if you had extra help.
@jennatess well that's obviously causin a huge issue right now In my dad's house , all bec I'm concerned about how ima be able to do this alone while my SO is a work and ever since I said that I guess it nerve racked her bec she "supposedly" took care of all 3 of hers after her csections (call bs) but yea my dad said I'm breaking them up I'm sorry I'm ranting I just dont understand how me bein a scared human is causin them to break up ... she's so much drama and I just had to get a second opinion bec I know that its nearly impossible to take care of 3 kids after a major dam surgery ..
@skyee.niicole4, oh! Definitely not until you’re cleared to go back to working out! I was thinking newborn! My bad!
You’ll definitely not want to be holding your oldest for a while.
@jennatess thank you for your reply , my dad's girlfriend seems to think I can take care of a 20 pound toddler after a major surgery .... I mean of course I can take care of my child but I just dont see it possible bein able to lift her and do all the things I could before my surgery after my surgery u know.? Kinda makes me so mad .. like wtf I'm not super woman ..
They wouldn’t let me hold my daughter while standing. So, I would always sit down and had my husband had her to me that way.
She was nearly 10lbs and I just wasn’t healing properly.
After about 3 days I was able to hold her for longer periods of time.
