Does anyone else think this statement is a little inaccurate?
"Many of them are employed in jobs where they barely get bathroom
breaks," Henchy said. "They're not going to be able to pump. They're not
going to be able to breast-feed."
Minimal breastfeeding is possible; I've worked with many women who had jobs that did not allow them to pump - one of my favorites was a Chicago policewoman who said "sure, I can pump while directing traffic - not!" But she nursed when she was at home and her baby got a bottle at daycare. Her attitude was some was better than none.
