Hey mama! Okay lang mag-work by January, lalo na desk job lang naman ang call center, a few of us went back around that time din at kami naman naka-cope okay, pero importante talaga na check mo muna with your OB kasi siya lang ang makikita ng tahi mo and makakasabi kung fully healed na or may concern pa. Yung occasional cramps ay normal pa during that window, pero ang motor byahe pabalik-balik combined with long shifts might tire you out faster than expected, kaya isipin mo rin kung may way to rest properly pag uwi like baby natulog na o may tumutulong sa household. Honestly, kahit kaya ng katawan mo physically, ang emotional energy pag nagwo-work while breastfeeding and adjusting pa lang talaga ay malaki, but I get it, financial pressure ay real din. Just ease in lang, maybe talk to your manager about lighter load first week or two, at listen to your body if may warning signs. Kaya mo yan mama, just be smart about it!
