[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would it be totally obnoxious to pump at my desk (it is a cubicle) using a wearable pump? No one would really see me because the cubicle walls are high but my office is quiet and coworkers would definitely hear it. We have a lactation room but I do not get time off to pump, so I have to make up the time I spend pumping and not at my computer by working late. It feels like such a bad choice between breastfeeding or spending time with my child. [/quote]

Do you have a laptop? I have been remote with all three, but when I had to go into the office when I was pumping (on work trips) I would bring my laptop and just work on my laptop in the pump room. I think it’s fine to do it at your desk if you have a pump you can put in your bra (wearable) and no one sees anything, but I would personally be uncomfortable pumping at my desk if the pump made a noise even if it wasn’t visible. If you pump every few hours and you don’t have a laptop then you have no choice but to pump at your desk. You can’t be expected to spend 9 hours at work. [/quote]
