  @laura1 Absolutely!  I was able to change a pee dipe no problem.  But if it were a poopy, and I had to actually hold her legs up with one hand and wipe with the other, I don't think I could do it.  Not with the way she fights and rolls these days.

  So true!  I still can't use my hand to pick up anything heavier than an empty coffee cup.  But I was able to get by last night by sliding my forearm under her armpit and lifting that way.  I also use my foot to kick her up into my lap when she's on the floor and I'm sitting on the couch.  She thinks it's hilarious!  Being a mom is all about adapting!

  Yay!!! I know it's not the same, but I had a terrible recovery from my c section. For the first two weeks I couldn't do anything for DS really and could only nurse the girls. DH did everything else. I know when I finally was able to get back in the game around four weeks pp I felt so much better about life. I am so glad you are recovering well!

  Thanks for asking @kaf7!  It feels good.  It's definitely getting stronger every day, and only hurts if I do something stupid like run into a wall and bend it funny.  Not that I would do anything like that.  L-)  My biggest complaint is with my range of motion - it's so limited still.  I go back to the doctor on Monday and am hoping for some PT to help me move things along.
