You know how you are feeling, no one knows how you feel. Go back to the doctor and explain the situation and the doctor will most likely tell you not to be lifting your kid for a while which will be hard but is for the best and then hopefully he will give you the meds. good luck!<br><b>References : </b><br> Don’t listen to anyone else.

I do not feel like asking for more meds makes you look like a drug addict but they may not give you more narcotics they may give you prescription strength Tylenol or ibuprofen. Also while I understand you daughter wants to be picked up you may not be able to do it as much as she would like. I know you can't really reason with an 18 month old so here are a couple of things to try. Have her climb onto your lap instead of you picking her up as this takes th strain off of your abdominal muscles as it is hers being used and not yours. If you do have to pick her up to not bend at the waist to do so, it is all about the legs at this point. The legs are much larger stronger muscles and are not injured at this point like your abdominals are. Remember to keep the child close to you when you lift. The website below has great pictures and explanations for everything. I hope you feel better soon!<br><b>References : </b><br>http://www.uhs.berkeley.edu/facstaff/Ergonomics/lifting/safelifting.shtml So, it takes everyone different lengths of time to heal from a surgery.

Ask for help - you should not be lifting your daughter - so ask for help from someone in caring for her. You need to give your body a chance to heal. 2. Call your doctor and tell them exactly what you said here. If you are still in pain and you have been lifting, you may have damaged some internal sutures or at very least, set the healing process back. You may need to see your doctor and you may need pain medication a bit longer because of the lifting. But whatever you do, you need to stop lifting long enough for you to heal.<br><b>References : </b><br>I've had abdominal surgery. 1.
