[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where will your newborn baby be while you are starting a new job? You’re going to have disrupted sleep for weeks on end….. why do this to yourself? [/quote]

You won't be putting your best foot forward at that job and you'll be a mess. I'm pregnant with my third and will go back to work for 6 weeks after 6 weeks of mat leave because it's a very busy time for my team and my husband has 20 weeks of paternity leave (we also have a nanny) and can help. I'm also remote. I'll be taking a 16-17 week maternity leave on top of the initial 6 weeks when my baby is 12 weeks. I'm only going back for 6 weeks at 6 weeks. I expect it will be tough but my team is not expecting 100% from me and I've done this before. It's very different if your team is expecting 100% from you which would be the case if you are starting a new role. It's also very different if you're a firm time mom or even a second time mom.

I personally would not do this. You will experience the worst of everything. [/quote]
