I haven't had a torn ACL myself, but I know a few mums who've gone through it and honestly it's tough with young kids at home. Recovery timelines vary a lot depending on whether you do surgery and how your physio goes, so I'd really encourage you to have a detailed chat with your orthopaedic surgeon about what the realistic timeline looks like for you and what modifications you'll need early on. In the meantime, it might be worth thinking about who can help you during the first few weeks at least - whether that's family, a helper, or even just friends doing school runs or meal prep, because you really can't rush this one. It's better to plan ahead than end up pushing too hard and setting yourself back. Wishing you all the best with it.
