    How interesting that I happened on this article as I was, you guessed it, pumping at work...

    I've been back to work for a month now and am slowly getting into the groove of pumping at work! I am fortunate enough to have my own office, work in academia, and have colleagues who are understanding and supportive. All in all, not a bad environment.

    Since it isn't always feasible to say "I have to go pump for 15-minutes", I try to plan accordingly. In fact, I'm still trying to work out a pumping schedule and teaching commitments for tomorrow.

    Again, thanks for the support! Women should not have to chose between breastfeeding their babies and going back to work.
