I am due to have my surgery on 23rd January 2023. I am able to sort help for me with the children for the first week, however help after that will be intermittent. My son goes to nursery 2 days a week. I am really worried about how aftercare will be with young children.

Answer: Breast augmentation recovery/aftercare with a 2.5-year-old and 1-year-old I advise my patients to take it easy for the week and not chase children around the house. Also I tell my patients they can lift their children to transfer from high chair, car seat, or crib from the third day after surgery. Always best to check with your surgeon's protocol.

Answer: Breast augmentation Most of my patients are moms. It helps if you rest your chest muscles after surgery for a few weeks. However, I realize it's almost impossible not to pick up your children. I'd suggest modifying your technique: use your arms less and instead bend down and use your legs to lift. Don't be afraid to ask for help after your procedure.
