Returning to Work After Maternity Leave: Day 2

Today was a bit shorter of a work day since I worked more than I was planning to yesterday. This morning's routine was off by about an hour with a groggy wake up after 7.

Despite successfully going to bed early and not falling asleep on the couch, Chloe decided to wake up at 1:00 AM last night. It's like she knows when I go to bed early.

I did manage to get to a barre class in the morning which I'm thankful for because it's been a minute since I have worked out. I was pleased to discover I'm stronger than the last time I was in class and I'm sure its because I've basically been weightlifting a baby that weighs more than 7kg. I came home, helped a bit with Chloe and then started work.

I have a few action items based around social media posts for the week so at least that is relatively low key for my postpartum brain at the moment.

Again, it was a relatively short day and tomorrow I plan for it to be a full work day, so we'll see how that goes.

I took care of Chloe the rest of the afternoon, made dinner (salmon, roasted veg and mashed potatoes), and then promptly passed out. I think we may have watched the Euphoria finale? I can't remember. Mom brain is real.
