I know this is probably a how long is a piece of string question. I'm due to have an op next week as a day case under general anaesthetic. I'm a SAHM with 3 small children (aged 3-8) and have got childcare covered for 6 days (so, op is on Wednesday, covered until the following Tuesday).
Is this going to be long enough? I'm wondering if I should try and send the kids to a play scheme for another day (or two). The surgeon has warned me to keep the children at a distance until I'm recovered (surgery is on my nose) as bouncy children and waving arms generally result in the patient being readmitted with an open wound!
