Can i start reading and working on pc post pregnancy?
I delivered around three weeks back and im itching to get back to my laptop and books. My elders are saying no screen time for 40 days at least. Is that an actual thing or can i slowly start?
Yes you can, screen and reading don't harm anything. But realistically the first few weeks are about feeding and zero sleep, so go easy. I eased back into laptop work slowly once the baby settled into some routine.
Post my C-section I started light reading within a couple of weeks, it actually kept me sane. PC work I delayed a bit because sitting long strained me initially. Listen to your body and don't rush the recovery, na.
Reading and screen time are perfectly fine for you, don't worry. Just be gentle with yourself, the early postpartum weeks are emotional and exhausting. I started slow and that was completely okay, no pressure to bounce back fast.
Totally fine to read and use the laptop. I often read on my phone during long feeding sessions, it passed time nicely. Just take breaks for your eyes and posture since you'll be sitting a lot anyway with the baby.
