[quote=Anonymous]this thread is bizarre and i'm convinced it's the same small business owner/woman who comments on multiple threads about women wanting leave. I had zero paid leave and had to return at 12 weeks but was very not ready-- so i returned gradually part time, working from home. I'm almost 7 months post partum-- my kid has horrible reflux and still only does max 3 hour stretches of sleep at night but at 12 weeks i was lucky if I got 90 minutes total all night. I wildly disagree with those people saying if you don't feel ready at first you'll never feel ready. I'm in a wildly different headspace now than 4 months ago and i imagine in another month or two will feel even more ready to take on additional work as my kid gains more predictable sleep and eating schedule. i think this obviously depends on the type of job if an employer can make it work. i have no salary/ am only paid a percentage of what i bill for the company so it's easier than someone who has set health benefits, salary, etc. [/quote]
