After meniscal surgery, how long will it be until I can squat?

I had my meniscus repaired back in January, and my surgery was more "heavy duty" than some because I'm still very young and I play sports. I had three sutures put in and was off of crutches after 6 weeks. Shortly after, softball season started and I couldn't play my main position, catcher, because I couldn't squat. It's now been 6 months and I still can't completely squat without feeling some tension on the front inside of my knee. My knee feels completely fine other than that. I've been pretty active and I'm just wondering if this is normal for a surgery like mine and if so how long will it be before I can squat again?
