My daughter, Juliana, was born 5/29/04, and I'm still on maternity leave (as yet undecided as to whether I'm going back to work). I've been pumping periodically since she was about a month old, to build up a supply of milk for when I leave the house by myself (to run errands, work out at the gym, etc.), but I'd only ever pumped at home, and not on any sort of regular schedule.

However, if a bottle-fed baby can have her dinner in public, why shouldn't a breastfed baby have the same rights? I have certainly never seen a public restroom that I would like to feed my baby in! And I'm certainly not going to stay cooped up at home all the time because I'm afraid that my baby will get hungry while we're gone

Breastfeeding mothers who work and pump for their child will probably have reliable childcare available, but may be worried about whether she would be allowed sufficient time for pumping.
