Confessions of a Nursing Mother

- By

“I wonder if anyone in the office is grossed out by the bags of breast milk in the freezer.”
Working mothers who try to keep up nursing are presented with the wonderful task of office pumping. It’s more than uncomfortable to post a “do not disturb” sign on the conference room door, knowing everyone who walks by can hear the strange sound of a breast pump extracting milk. Walking past co-workers to the kitchen with bags of breast milk in each hand totally solidifies each day. Before bringing a cooler, I stored my milk in the freezer until the end of the day. No one ever said anything, but I always wondered what people thought when they saw milk-filled, dated and labeled Medela bags.
