"Nursing Mother Faces Double Standard at Work: 'Pumping Breaks' vs 'Smoke Breaks'"

A nursing mother shared her frustration on Reddit about her co-workers being annoyed by her pumping breaks at work. She explained that the discomfort of not pumping is unbearable and skipping breaks is not an option. While some commenters suggested that her co-workers may not understand her dilemma, others highlighted the need for more sex education and empathy in the workplace. Failing to pump can lead to medical conditions and reduced milk supply. The PUMP Act requires employers to provide reasonable break time for nursing employees, so it is important to recognize and support the needs of working moms.
