they that probably told you that it takes adults longer to recover from this surgery than kids, and that you will have to take it easy with lifting (your toddler) for a while. Please make sure you call in all your favors and get good help with the child care while you recover. I am sure that you will feel much, much better with the tonsils gone and healed!
