I am going to need more spinal surgery. I've been through this before, but never with kids. It was hard enough after having DD2 when the dr told me I shouldn't pick up my other daughter for 2 weeks. Honestly, I didn't make it and was picking her up after a week. I don't know how I can go at least a month, and probably closer to 6-12 weeks without picking up my girls, and I know I absolutely have to abide by the rules this time. It's breaking my heart thinking about it. I am trying to hold off on surgery until March so that DD2 will be walking, because it will be totally impossible not to pick her up if she's not walking yet.
