Asked By:Patty B in Wall, NJ

I provide day care for my brothers 2yr old son. I plan to have a full tummy tuck . Will I be able to resume care for him in week or two if I stay housebound. When will it be safe to pick him up. I am 47 and have had 3 C Sections so I am aware of the pain but am a quick healer. Thanks.
