I am scheduled to have a hybrid tummy tuck with a hernia repair, and a breast lift with sub muscle implants in April. I am planning to take 4 1/2 weeks off from work. I am a labor and delivery nurse, so my job is pretty intense. For the first 2 weeks back, my boss has agreed that I can stick to working our Antepartum areas and as the baby nurse. Does this seem like a realistic plan? Thanks in advance for your input.

Answer: Working after Mommy makeover Your plan seems reasonable if you can avoid heavy lifting after your return to work. Communicate openly with your supervisor to be sure that the expectations upon return to work are realistic and always follow the advice of your plastic surgeon.Best of luck,

Answer: For half weeks is general enough time for convalescence after mommy makeover for a nurse. As a nurse you know that not everyone heals the same way. Nevertheless I think four and half weeks should be more than enough time for you to recover from the operation so you can complete your responsibilities as a nurse.

Answer: Recovery after breast augmentation tummy tuck I think your recovery plan is realistic. If you're going to take 4 1/2 weeks off and then have two weeks of low intensity work that should be fine. Good luck.Earl Stephenson, Jr, M.D., DDS, FACS
