Her return was impressive. I give her a lot of credit for the gold-medal effort it took to recover from pregnancy and prepare for such elite competition.

I think it was too soon. Her body and her baby couldn't possibly be ready for that kind of physical and emotional commitment.

I don't think it should even be a question. Women return to work all the time. Hers might be more physical than some, but think about the women that have to be back at work within 6 weeks!
