How long before I can return to work, and lift my baby?

Jessicam13
I am going for breast augmentation, and full abdominoplasty with umbilical hernia repair, and diastasis repair. I am a Physical Therapist and am required to do heavy lifting at work. I also have a 1 years old who weighs about 23 lbs. How long before I will be able to return to work, and lift my son?
