Frustrated-when did you have to stop breastfeeding?

Danielle

I’m saddened by the fact that because of my

job I will stop breastfeeding after a couple months. Yes I know it’s illegal for an employer to not provide time/space but it is the reality in many jobs. I am a teacher and yes my employer said I can use my classroom to pump but it’s so awkward (being windows and 2 glass doors and the chance of at any time- kids or staff unlocking my door). I also have to work around my class schedule which means some days not having a break for over 4 hours. I’ll never be able to go that long without leaking through everything in the middle of a lesson or class- pretty much forcing myself and baby to wean off before I go back to work full time.... and I’m most likely a lucky one because I can afford to take 12 weeks off of unpaid leave on top of my 6 weeks sick time I have saved up.
