I’m baaaaaaack!! 5 weeks
ago I returned to work after my maternity leave with my second son. I was blessed to be able to stay home 13
weeks after he was born, and to work from home my first 3 weeks back to work. I had a nice long hiatus from work and travel. But . . . now it is back to the grind and
back to the road. And boy did I get a
wake-up call these past 2 weeks on my return back.
For those of you who have children who breastfeed and pumped with
any of them, you know the effort you put into pumping. Whether you are traveling work mama or are
just a mama heading out on a trip . . . when you are faced with the thought of
pumping while trying to get through the airport, in a hotel, during a day-long
work meeting, in an 8 hour car ride, in a group setting, etc. the panic
hits. I’ll be quite transparent, I
forgot how hard it was to pump and travel for work but it all came back to me
during my first work trip last week. Have
no fear . . . I hit the road and pumped for 6 months with my first son, and am trudging
knee deep again with this one so I have gathered below a few tips and
recommendations and experiences to make this as easy as possible for you. You CAN do it. Here’s how.
