I’d air on side of caution and wait 3 months. You don’t want to mess the repair up. And then go light there and work your way up. I’d maybe think of a alternative to squats as they are wan of the few excecises that cause an increase in intra-abdominal pressure.
im not a doctor just my opinion..
there are studies out there that show that the area can take up to a year to be 100% healed.
