C-section recovery, how long did your hubby stay home and stairs question...?
When my #2 was born (also c/s) we lived in an upstairs apartment.... kinda had to do the stairs immediately. Just take it SLOW and hold on for extra security. My husband could only take 10 days off (military) and after that I was on my own with a 28 month old and a newborn. You can manage, just be slow and know that things around your house won't be perfect for a while. You'll feel much better just being home and in your own surroundings. Just be sure to follow the rules for the first few weeks, no lifting anything heavier than the baby+carseat, get as much rest as possible with 2 kids and in general just take it easy. I'm having my 3rd c/s in 3 weeks and we live in a 2 story house with all bedrooms upstairs now, so I'll be going thru all this again soon myself.
