Panicked mothers who rely on baby formula are being told on social media to start breastfeeding, as if on cue. But is it really that simple?
“Working moms who pump need time to step away from work a couple times a day, find a quiet and private place to pump, more time to clean all the equipment, a good cooler bag for transportation and a short enough commute to prevent the milk from spoiling," Powers tells TODAY Parents.
"When I pumped at work, it took up a ton of mental energy," she recalls."I disappeared for 30 minutes twice a day into a small room used by multiple moms, where I’d lock the door, take off my dress, pray nobody would walk in on me and then pump and clean all the parts. This also meant I usually had to work more later at night to make up for the lost pumping time."
Ashbeck points out that having a supportive family is a big part of the breastfeeding journey."It's not the right answer for every mom."
