Today is my last day of maternity leave 😢 ⠀ ⠀ I’ve had 4 whole months with baby 👶🏻 ⠀ & I realize that this has been a privilege because the United States does NOT guarantee maternity leave for its citizens ⠀ ⠀ (Another reason why I wanted to give birth abroad, more on that later)⠀ ⠀ I don’t know how new moms get up and go back to work after WEEKS! I’m privileged to get 4 months of leave & shown Santi so much in this time⠀ ⠀ This is definitely harder for me than for baby ⠀ ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #AMNH #museumofnaturalhistory #maternityleave #mommasboy #maternityleaveisover #maternityleavelife #explorenyc #nyc
