    Default working 3 weeks after having baby

    i just had my son 2 weeks ago and am ready to go back to work. ive lost 95%of the weight,and have been doing 100 pushups,600 crunches,100 butt lifts,100 squats daily to tone up 4 days after my son,and im pretty toned right now. i only plan on working 1 day a week for the first month then 2 days a week after that. the thing is i feel guilty for leaving him so early. ill just be gone a few hours at night but still..is it too early?

    I don't think so. As long as he'll have milk and what not, and a person you trust with him, 1 night doesn't sound bad at all.

    but you have to do what's comfortable for you b/c if it's driving you crazy at work, it'll just mess with your mind. Try a shift and see how you feel.

    Wow...how are you doing so much exercise so quick?! My daughter is 1 and I just now got my strength back to do more extensive workouts but I couldn't last all that.

    But aren't you still doing the post-partum bleeding? It'll be very heavy if you go back now and you can't use tampons because of the open wound left by your placenta detaching. You should wait it out a few more weeks.

    I was wondering the same thing. You wouldn't want to develop an infection. You don't think your doing to much anyway talk to your dr first.

    I started dancing again just a few weeks after I had my son. As long as the baby is with someone trust worthy, and you won't be gone very long, you should be just fine. The baby will probably be sleeping most of the time anyway and barely know you're not there. IMO, it's alot better than having a day job, where you're gone all day while the baby's awake.
