Are there any laws saying I can breastfeed as much as I need at work? My job isn't allowing me to do much and are telling me that if I go over my 15 min break then I have to stay later to make up for the time

But they definitely have to give you extra time for walking to the room, setting up and washing your pump parts afterwards. The 15-20 min is supposed to be for just the actual pumping.

@ciraclesmiracle, but it's supposed to be around your breaks right? They're making me use my paid breaks and lunch break to pump. I think I will ask my doctor to write a note

@jacesterlingsmommy, it is! Like including the time it takes to get everything ready and walk to the room and store the milk when you're done you've already used about half the time. That's not even including the let down. Did your job accommodate you?

I was a fast pumper but I don't even think I could get it all done and wrapped up in 15 minutes. Seems like an unreasonable amount of time to me.

It's not "as much as you need", but CA law requires that they give you breaks within reason. Generally it's about 15-20min every 2-3 hours. Because breastfeeding is medical, it may help to talk to your doctor and get written orders to present to your employer to define your medical needs regarding breastfeeding. Further, your employer may not pay you for all of your breastfeeding breaks if they go beyond your regular allotted breaks.

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

I broke down at my moms house today ... because of the debt we owe and Passover is coming and it’s a very expensive holiday ... it was just way too much .... my mom i guess told my brother that I’m suffering and he called me over and asked me why i didn’t just ask for help, and offered to help when i need it . And gave me basically 4K to help for the month and if i need more to ask ... now one thing about me , is that i will suffer silently and won’t ask for help.... I’ve always been that way. Deff thankful for my family atm. I will start to do eBay too . I have stuff i can sell... anything to help out alittle help my husband ... whatever i can do.

Modesty- Where did it go?

Modesty- Where did it go? There is too much sexy going on! I was incredibly guilty of it in my younger days, too. But as I get older and look at pictures that women are proud of I actually get embarrassed for them. What happened to old fashioned modesty? I change clothes if my v neck t-shirt shows too much! I know my younger self would be laughing at me right now, but I have definitely changed my perspective as I have gotten older and become a mom! Does anyone else feel this way or have I just turned into a crabby old biddy that forgot what it was like to be young?!?!
