    When are you getting to spend time with your babies?

    @wargame_junkie WFH with a nanny is so so nice. I realize it’s not realistic for everyone but I love getting to spend half an hour every morning reading books w my kid rather than frantically trying to get everyone out the door.

I planned to pump once back at work but quickly realized it didn’t make any sense from a time management perspective. It took me 30 mins to pump and...

    Breastfeeding exclusively 3-6 month old infant while WFH

    @wisper Legally you are only required to have breaks to pump, not time to breastfeed (just how the law is written). So I would just not mention to anyone at work which one you’re doing, if you think they’d push back.
