Maybe h*ll ... BTDT... broke 3 bones in my right foot 2 years ago (brake pedals do hell if you actually head on under a yellow light). Doc said ice/elevate come see us in a week when swelling goes down and we'll put you in a cast ... expect 8 weeks+. Go back in a week (after sitting / sleeping and everything else with it proped up)... everything was lined up right... and knitting.. Doc puts me in a walking boot and says stay off of it.. keep elevated as much as possible.. Never did get a cast.
Point being stay off of it (at least the first week/10 days).. elevate/ice and hopefully you'll be mending by the time the baby gets here.
Play on the computer... ready the books on having your first child.. prop it up. Enjoy some time with your wife before the baby comes ... cause once it's here there's never again a time when there's just two of you.
Being cooped up is challenging.. you're getting a baby... focus on the good... and in a way this might be someone's way of saying.."slow down.. stay home.. enjoy your newborn".
BTW... there's nothing like being a dad... or granddad... enjoy.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
