: Hi, I posted on the other board but didn't recieve a response, was hoping someone might be able to help. I am planning to return to work after my baby is born. How quickly has any of those with children returned to work after having a baby or those who r pregnant with their 1st child, when do u plan to go back?

Because I have worked so many years in the medical field and love it, I almost went back to school to become a doctor but, because I wanted to be there for my children, I decided to go back to school again to have a medical job working from home. I now work part-time at home and still think it is very tiring to work and take care of my children. I didn't get maternity leave. Instead, I got disability benefits. I returned to work at 3-1/2 months. If you could afford it, I would suggest a part-time job.
