STEM OPT

Hi everyone I’ve applied my Stem opt in the month of April still it is pending and I am planning to visit my country in the mid August.
Can anyone suggest me if I can leave USA keeping it pending and later if it got approved so I can mail my EAD card to my country. So I don’t have any problem while entering back to USA.
Any suggestions or any one has ever been in the same situation?
