[quote=Anonymous]I think humor is good, but could it be related to your workplace rather than to maternity leave or pumping? So, is there some kind of dreadful part of your jobs that you could make a joke about her having to return to? (My colleagues could have made jokes about me being nominated to certain dreadful committees while I was out.) Or is there a symbol of your job, and maybe you could give her a picture frame (for a pic of her baby) with that symbol? (Stethoscope, fire hat, mortar board?) If you work in a library, maybe you could make a library card for the baby--or whatever the equivalent is in your line of work? I do agree with PPs that you have to walk a fine line here, but if there's a way to make it humorous about your work place and work culture, I think that could be appropriate.[/quote]
