Shiloh,

I would look into it, just as a 'back-up' incase.. I'm sure your 10

yr old, will be in school durning the day But would be able to help

to a point afterwards with your 2 yr old. I know at the time I had

surgery my boys were/are 5 & 8.. they both go to school.. but at the

time it was summer break.. So there wouldve been no way I could give

the attention my 5 yr old needs at that point.. and my 8 yr old can

only handle/entertain his little brother so much before he reaches

his limits.. lol..

I dont know how much time off your husband would have off either..

so you might just want to play it by ear.. have a back up.. and see

how you will feel.. Because I'm sure your little one is gonna want

to play, etc with mommy.. and I'm sure being wired (if that becomes

an option)..(I know I was exhausted from surgery itself, the pain

meds, being banded and how tiring that got just doing the liquids..

let alone how worn out I felt once I got to mushy foods with my

bands) will be tiring in itself.. But then again.. your little one

might surprise you..

Best of Luck...
