Although a many women do return to work 'early' (under 6mos) especially 
professional self employed women, please note that most women in Canada 
have a full year maternity leave. In a great many, perhaps even most, cases 
they receive full salary. This makes the returning to work while 
breastfeeding situation very different from that of the US. We find the 
books and articles written and published in the US largely inapplicable as 
I expect you would find articles and books written from a Canadian 
perspective. The number of women who would be able or interested in 
submitting a story would be similarly smaller. It is simply not a common 
experience even in areas with high breastfeeding rates. Returning to work 
with an older child breastfeeding is so very different. Still emotional and 
hard to leave, but different.
