You can start climbing stairs now. You should wear an abdominal binder.
When you go to your mom's house please climb stairs and get down the stairs only once a day. Don't use stairs to build your stamina at this stage.

Yes you can climb now also but it is best to avoid strenous activity for 6 weeks to allow good healing of scars.
