ICSI TWW Heavy Lifting/WFH

After a very long journey I'm now on the TWW (transferred on Wednesday). I took Weds/Thurs off and WFH today. I'm torn about what to do for the next two weeks. I'm normally in the office Mon and Weds with a 3.2hr round commute (trains/bus/3 mile walk) and have to take a heavy laptop backpack with me. I've read wide ranging information on carrying heavy weights from anything from my consultant saying don't worry about it, to not carrying anything heavier than 5kg or a full kettle?! My boss is pretty understanding and has left me WFH these past two weeks as the clinic would have been a 4 hr round trip to work. I'm not sure whether to ask to WFH for a couple of weeks or whether going in is a good distraction. I was planning to ask to WFH the week of the test anyway as I know that might be a really difficult time and have booked A/L on test day just in case.

Thanks in advance.

Just to add my backpack is around 6kg, put it on the scales before transfer!

@daisyrosebuttercup as you've had a long journey, I wouldn't risk it. It's me probably being extra careful. If you have the possibility to work from home, take it. But at the same time, make sure you keep moving (a gentle walk for example) as idling is also not advised. All the best X
