How long until I can hold my baby after explant?

Question

I'm planning on explant in May, my baby will be 5 months, maybe 15 lbs. no capsule removal, under sedation. How long until I can care for him myself?

In general, you can probably hold your baby after several
weeks.Best to check with your plastic
surgeon.Best Regards.

Tom J. Pousti, MD · Answer

Your plastic surgeon will always be your best guide when it comes returning to specific activities. He/she will know exactly what procedure was performed and how you are progressing.  Based on your description however I think that you will be back to childcare activities approximately one week after the procedure is performed; again, best to run this question by your plastic surgeon. Best wishes.
