[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think 4 weeks is really pushing it, and 6 will still be brutal overall, but physically you'll be in better shape. I would really try to make 6 your minimum. I'm thinking about the bleeding and pain while sitting, which were still bad for me for the first month. My MIL had to go back to work as a medical resident within a few days of giving birth, so I know it CAN be done if you have no choice. [/quote] Agree that you should really really try to take at minimum 6 weeks, and with the earlier comments that your DH should be taking [b]any[/b] job (Amazon warehouse, Uber driver, door dash, etc to make this feasible. Barring that, definitely echo the suggestion to switch to formula early and have DH take most of the night duty. [/quote]
