Hi Janice, Nice to "see" you here.  I think of you so often.  

Thanks for posting this item.  There is a woman named Cate Colburn-Smith who
has written a book about her adventures getting an infant feeding program
into I.B.M.  Her book is called "The Milk Memos".  She's teaching courses on
how to set up work environments to maximize well being of nursing
mothers/babies.  You can read more about her work at www.consciouswoman.org

Breastfeeding Moms in the Workplace


What is a working mom to do when her baby's health, her own wellbeing, and
her need for income are pitted against a structured workplace that is
insensitive or perplexed about her plight? What is an employer to do when
its workers challenge the establishment, demanding new levels of support and
flexibility that may be perceived as inconvenient, biased and costly? Join

Colburn-Smith , author of

a presentation that will define specific, practical steps employers can take
to support breastfeeding moms, and offer powerful advice for moms to get the
space, time and support they need to pump breastmilk at work.
