I think it depends whether you went thru normal birth or csect. Im not sure about normal birth but for csect, 2 months is way too short, youll still be in pain and its advised not to do anything strenuous or carry heavy things etc for atleast 3 months. I understand that youre not the type that can stay in house for long but believe me, your body will really need the rest and time to recover fully.
