Advocating for Your Needs
Navigating work while breastfeeding requires knowledge of your rights. Most workplaces are required to provide break time and a private space (not a bathroom) for pumping.
Knowing your legal protections empowers you to advocate for yourself. Meanwhile, your milk continues to offer tailored nutrition and immune support, no matter where or when it’s expressed.
Tips for You This Week
- Familiarize yourself with workplace policies and lactation accommodation laws.
- Create a pumping schedule that balances your work and milk production.
- Remind yourself that advocating for your needs is an act of self-care and strength.
Fun Fact:
Adoptive breastfeeding can be achieved through medically induced lactation techniques.
