C section recovery

I think I conviently forgot how uncomfortable the c section recovery was after #1.  My SIL just had a c section Monday and seeing her try to get around brought it all back.  How am I supposed to take care of DS#1 (he will be 14 months) While recovering from a c section?  Anyone have any experience or tips of how to get it done.  DH will be home for 1 week after baby is born, but after that it will be just me with them both.

    Is DS walking and climbing?If so he is to climb into your lap. Also recovery round two is faster than round 1.

    My oldest 2 are 4 years apart so it is a little different but I can honestly say that recovery was so much easier the second time around. H was home for 2 weeks and he helped out tremendously but by the time he went back to work I was completely fine o

    I just had my second c section, DS was 11 months. I had help the first week home and then I was on my own. Fortunately DH had time off to take us to the Dr and I never needed to worry about getting him in the car. Just take it slow. Good luck!

    I will be having a RSC for this LO too, and my advice would be to just be very careful that week that your DH is there, I was able to do no lifting in the first 10 days (DS was in the NICU and not able to be moved from his incubator for any length of t
