To make ends meet, many women must work at jobs that make it difficult for them to keep up a pumping routine. Many employers are not sympathetic or helpful to breastfeeding employees. I feel lucky that I was able to work at home as a freelance editor, which made it easy for me to breastfeed both of my babies. Not every working Mom is so fortunate as I was.

Well, Amazon gives birthing parents 20 weeks of paid leave, which is far better than most U.S. employers. But pediatricians recommend that babies be exclusively breastfed for 6 months and subsequently breastfed with supplemental foods until they are a year old or longer. So, yes, I had Amazon warehouse workers in mind, among many others.

You mean like Amazon warehouse workers? one of the fastest job growth areas in the US? Yep.
It’s a job but not anywhere near an ideal job unless you’re in one that has a true union.
