Has anyone in here had any experience w/ a mother in the National Guard or Army Reserves? I have permission from mom to ask this question. Mom is bfing her 2nd baby and everything is going wonderful and she is so happy. BF w/ her first child didn't work out and she is determined that this experience would go well. However, she and her husband are in the National Guard (same unit) and are scheduled for their annual summer camp training in June. Usually, the summer camps are in "war-like" conditions: tents, no electricity, water issues, etc.-- you get the picture. Her baby will be 3 months old and she is not really wanting to leave her or wean, and has concerns about pumping under questionable sanitary conditions.
Does the military grant any type of leave of absence in this type of situation?
