Back To Work (Doesn’t sound as fun as back to school!)
For all of you new moms out there, here are some tips to help make the transition back to work as smooth as possible. This can be quite a traumatic time in your life, but like most moms know, it does (well, kind of) get easier.
Welcome Back: Returning to Work After Your Maternity Leave
By Caroline M. Levchuck
And you thought going back to work after a great vacation was rough…
Planning Your Return
Six weeks? Ten weeks? Twelve weeks? How can a new mom know she’s ready to return to work?
Proper planning can help you choose the best back-to-work date for you and your family. First, try to anticipate how much time you’ll need (and how much time you’ll get) to the best of your ability. Talk to other working mothers. Review your eligibility under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) as well as your employer’s maternity leave policy and your personal financial situation to assess not only when but how you’ll return to work.
