Okay momma I need some advise.
I want my baby on breastmilk for at least 6 months. Well I'll be going back to work at like 2 months. The thing I'm worried about is that I dont think I will be able to pump at work. There really isnt a room I can go into to pump. I work for starbucks if that helps. I know my boss will give me the breaks needed to pump but I dont really have a place to do it. (And I know it's a law) Do you guys think I'll be Okay if I dont pump at work? Or any suggestions on what to do. Anything will help 🙏

It really depends on you, your supply and your shift lengths. If longer than 4hrs it can definitely make an impact. Can you use your car and a cover?

See I'm totally fine doing it in my car with a cover. But didn't know if that was "okay" my shifts for the most part shouldnt be more then 6 hours. Haha new mom struggles.

6 hrs would honestly push it hun. I'd go for wherever makes you comfortable, the worst they can legally say is that you have to take your work shirt off if you're going to the car

I would most definitely pump at work. Buy the car adapter and use a cover. Or even use your bosses office. I mean it just needs to be a quick 15-20 minute pump every 3-4 hours. But I would not skip any longer then that.

I work in a restaurant and I’d pump in the office.

They have to provide a private place for you to pump that is not a bathroom. If you only feel comfortable in your car because there’s no private space, then they should let you go there.
