Most plastic surgeons suggest waiting until your weight has been stable (within 3-4 lbs) for 6 mos.  Which means, you should prolly wait until after you lose the baby weight after giving birth, and then wait 6 mos.  2 mos won't do it.

 Not to mention - you are going to be TIRED!  Is this your first baby?  At 2 months, that baby won't be sleeping through the night most likely.  You might be low in iron - and your nutrient requirements with nursing will be high...not a good time to be cutting yourself open and risking more blood loss.

You also need to think about who will be looking after your baby for at least 4 weeks.  You can't lift over 10lbs for 4-6 weeks after surgery - and a two month old baby will weigh more than that.  Also, I wouldn't want to be nursing or rocking a baby on my tummy incision!  And what about being away from your young baby (particularly if nursing) for two days while in hospital?

Not to mention the hormones that come with having a baby - and the hormones of plastics...EEK!!  Your poor spouse... lol

If it were me?  I'd wait until my baby was at least 6 months old...
