When can I lift my toddler again?

Jen

I had a csection 2 weeks ago. My discharge papers say not to lift over 10 lbs for 6 weeks. But I have a 35lb toddler at home, and let’s be real, how am I supposed to not lift him for the next four weeks?! Anyone start lifting heavier things earlier than the 6 week mark? Or have other little kids like me and realize it’s not possible?
