Cancelled
I had been offered the 16th and was planning to jump on it, but after catching hell from my family members and being unable to secure nanny help, I rescheduled. I guess my mom is right, I don't want to be down for the baby's first Christmas.
On one hand I am really scared, on the other I really want to do it yesterday. The timing will never be perfect, oh well.
Thinking of March instead. If I do it then I will have to take off work. How long for tt and BLA?

You know what your obligations are. But if you had surgery on the 16th you would not be 100% by Christmas, but you would be moving around pretty good. Don't let other peoples expectations influence your decision. You have to do this for you. After all -- Christmas is just another day and there will be another one next year.

i disagree with whoever said you dont want to "miss the babies first christmas"...OK....FIRST OF ALL if the baby is less than 1 yr old, they are not going to even know its christmas and they only have a long term memory of 2 weeks at that age, so they will not know the difference. It seems like someone is trying to guilt trip you.
I have twins who are 1yr 9months now and they were 7 months when i had the VSG, and i had to hear the same crap, well guess what? they didn't miss me and I promise you they do not remember me being gone for a week!
Sorry, that just ticks me off!

Thank you so much! I feel better reading this. I felt like a selfish b**** after listening to the lectures, but thinking back I have heard this before. When I had my RNY, my oldest daughter was one and everyone thought she would be scarred for life because I couldn't pick her up for a little while. I bounced right back and was fine in no time.
Thanks again! I needed this reassurance!
