Back to work in 7 hours after having baby
« on: February 09, 2010, 08:23:11 AM »
When Dr Helen Wright had her third child she decided to personally show that you can combine a top career and children ? by being back at her desk just seven hours after giving birth.

Dr Wright, 39, went into labour early in the morning and was back at ?9,300-a-term St Mary?s Calne school in Calne, Wiltshire, by lunchtime with newborn Jessica in tow.

Every school day since, she has brought her baby in, breast-feeding her between meetings and letting her doze during the more arduous parts of her schedule.

She said: ?The day I had Jessica I went to hospital in Bath at 5.45am. I had her less than an hour later and I was discharged three hours later. I felt absolutely brilliant so I thought: why not share that?

?I was back in my study just after lunch introducing her to everyone! I look after people?s daughters for them so they expect me to be pretty special and an excellent role model.

'Most mothers want their daughters to have the exhilarating excitement of a career they love and the joy of a family. I have that and I want to show the girls at St Mary?s that that is not an impossible dream.?



Can you imagine any of the teachers in that school ringing her up to take time off  sick for a cold  scared2:

Not back to work for 2 reasons:

1.She is employed in the education sector.
2. She is going to meetings, not working.
