Can I lift my infant after hernia repair?
You should talk with your surgeon about this because depending on how large the hernia, what kind of surgical procedure, and how much your infant weighs all plays a part. Generally speaking I have heard not to lift more than 10 pounds initially after surgery. I am having my own hernia repair surgery tomorrow and have a 15 pound baby so I will not be able to lift him for the first week post surgery. Good luck!
Can you breastfeed after an umbilical hernia repair?
As breastfeeding is entirely unrelated to a hernia, there is no reason why not. You might want to store up some breast milk ahead of time because any anesthetic you get will come through your milk, but should clear from your system pretty rapidly.
