    My two youngest girls where 13 mths and 24 mths when I had my second c-section.
    They came and visited me the next day in the afternoon, I was up and about by then and we took them down to the nursery to visit their brother. I could hug them and have them sitting on my bed with me, but they had to be gentle of mummy's tummy.
    I Was only in hospital for three days and they coped at home really well, daddy lets them get away with anything.
    I couldn't lift them for the first few days but once I was home DH had to go straight back to work so I had to do it myself after that, my 13 mth old was only tiny still so not to heavy and my would climb on the couch so I could lift from there.
    My recovery was quite good and quickly I was doing things relatively normally.
    They both copped really well with it as was only a short time that things were a little strange.
