Kimbosue's Blog has MOOOOOVED!
**As of November 9, 2009, please find me at my new home below.**
Some posts are pw protected, so for the super secret decoder pen....ahem... code, please email me at kimbosue2 AT hotmail DOT com.
This blog will remain open. The link is still tied to lots of IF blogs, groups, and websites. I hope someone can read through my journey and find hope and strength and know that there is a light at the end of the IF tunnel. Prayer is the key! I love all my IF girlies I met along the way, and I hope to keep your friendships going forward during this next chapter of Mommyhood. I hope to see you there!

Bad Decision

3 nice things to say...:
Nothing like an inflexible employer to help promote workplace stress.
I think Totes will get some bad publicity for this, very shortsighted.
As a BFing mommy who just came in from pumping, this makes me mad. I understand why they made the decision they did, but the court really should have addressed the question at hand. In times like these why are they making it harder for a mother to provide naturally (and cheaper) for their children when they are making it harder for mom's to stay home and care for them. There needs to be a compromise. I don't know what I'd do if my boss tried to stop me from going out to pump. I'm even upset that a company the size of mine doesn't have a lactation room, I pump in my car, no idea what I'm gonna do when winter gets here.
I feel for the poor woman. I too, don't know what I'd do if I was told I couldn't pump. There just aren't enough laws to protect pumping mothers. Too many have too choose to either stay home and bf, or work and give it up.
