Returning to work after maternity leave turned out to be a difficult ordeal. The first six months were filled with constant breaks due to caring for the child, which significantly affected my professional activity. As a result, earnings during this period were practically zero, and in my work, which holds a leadership position, constant updating of information is key. My frequent absences inevitably affected my relationship with management.

Now, it seems, we are starting to get into a rhythm, the child’s immunity has strengthened. However, my nervous system is on edge.
