Maintaining Your Supply at Work

Balancing work and breastfeeding requires planning and persistence. Advocating for workplace accommodations, like a private space for pumping, ensures your success.

Your milk remains a critical part of your baby’s diet, even as they grow. Maintaining supply at work reinforces the adaptability and resilience of your breastfeeding journey.

Tips for You This Week
  • Communicate with your employer about your pumping schedule and needs.
  • Invest in quality pumping equipment to streamline your routine.
  • Remember that every ounce of milk you provide is an incredible gift.
