no im not checking with mine. I sit at a desk all day so I highly doubt I need clearance from a doc for that, but maybe if you do a more strenuous job with heavy lifting and such then you may want to check with a doc and see if its ok, but if your job isn't that demanding, I don't see a reason to check
@macieka, @helpedbytmh did either of you check with your dr before returning to work? people are telling me i need to before returning im 3 weeks PP and return to work the end of this week
