When things get rough......
"When you’re sad about leaving your child to go to work try to focus on the good. 'I’m getting out of the house. I’m making money for my family. I get to socialize with other adults. I’m a positive example for my children'." -Ann Marie M. "Also watch videos of your little one while you pump to encourage let downs and to bring a smile to your face!" -Jalyn V.
Getting Organized......
"Schedule out time BEFORE you get to work and set alarms to remind yourself. " - Samantha M. "Make sure you know ahead of time where you will be pumping and where you can store your milk. See what accommodations your employer has available to you." - Cristina E. "If you don't have fridge access, this [Medela Cooler Bag] keeps your milk super cold all day. The freezer packs allows for 4 bottles so up to 24 ounces. I'm part time so I just use two bottles and keep my pump parts cold (rinsed, in a ziplock bag) on the other side. It keeps them all really cold." -Tifani S. "Get to work early and pump. Always start your shift emptied." -Stefanie A. Are You Making Enough Milk??Grab Your Increasing Milk Supply Guide right now!! I created this FREE Content just for YOU!!!
Time saver hacks can save your sanity!
"I keep my used parts in a wet bag that I keep in the fridge after use. I wipe them clean after pumping and then in the fridge they go. Some people clean their parts after each use but I just don’t have time for that." - Christina E. "Consider renting a hospital-grade pump to keep at work... I found it helped me produce more and was super quiet (so I could pump during conference calls)." -Courtney V. "If you can swing it, get a second pump. No need to lug it back and forth! Or use a manual pump at home and bring your electric to the office." Melissa M. "Freemie Cups! Work with multiple pumps - also get an extra pump to leave at the office along with back up supplies if you can!" - Erica B. "After pumping, poor the milk directly into the bottles your baby needs for tomorrow. This makes it so much easier to put them in the fridge when you get home." - Shelby P.
The little things that make a huge difference....
"I pack snack bars in my pump bag. Sucks to be starving when pumping on those days when lunch gets away from you. I also downloaded Amazon Prime Video app to have stuff to watch. If work is stressful and I can't clear my head, there's always something to watch to take my mind off of it. I keep some earphones in my bag too for that reason." - Tifani S. "Wash your pumping bra in baby's detergent so you can smell them when you pump and make yourself happy ." - Samantha M. "Extra parts! I kept stuff at work and stuff at home so I could carry less back and forth and have a lower chance of forgetting something important." - Lisa N. "I had a heater in the room I pumped to stay warm in the winter, and brought my phone in to look at pictures of my little dude while pumping or to just doodle around on for my pumping time." -Ashley S. "I used a little kids suitcase on wheels for my breast pump and supplies." -Shelby P.
