STFU Gertrude. Mom clearly loves what she does and is able to bring the baby with her. No one is forcing her to do this. She's clearly choosing to as she 100% should be able to.

She also, worked remotely three days a week and literally built a play space with a pack and play in the conference room next to her office. Her nanny came to work with her, took care of the kid, took the kid for walks, etc. Mom, basically built a nursey at work and had a nanny. So, for these people, yeah, it's not hard.
The judge I clerked for did a very similar thing. Also, not hard. Now, when I had my kid, I nearly lost my clerkship (this was years ago but this century).
It's the rest of us that are utterly screwed. Once again, rich and powerful people have different rules and work arounds. The laws are to protect us NOT RICH and POWERFUL people.

It's a 5 hour commitment, and who knows, someone might bring her baby to her in a car to breastfeed halfway through. Or she can pump privately.
Not ideal, certainly not my preference, but it is doable if you had an uncomplicated birth, have someone to watch the baby, get picked up in a car to go and whisked away when it's over, and can use special entrances and exits, etc...
Her husband works at the same place she does and the baby is at work. They set up one of their offices as a nursery.
Nobody’s “bringing the baby in a car”.
