43) Breastfeeding and Pumping at Work: A Practical Guide for Working Moms with Mama Ruth

The transition back to work is a massive milestone, but for breastfeeding mothers, it comes with its own set of logistical and emotional hurdles. In this episode of Dam Parenting, we sit down with breastfeeding expert and advocate ⁠Mama Ruth⁠⁠ to take a warm, honest, and direct look at balancing your 9-to-5 with your feeding journey.

We dive into the "how-to" of pumping at the office, from managing your milk supply to understanding your rights in the Dutch workplace. Ruth shares essential strategies for the first few weeks back, offering tips on everything from scheduling sessions to keeping your sanity intact during the juggle. Whether you’re feeling anxious about the transition or looking for ways to sustain your journey long-term, this conversation provides the expert guidance and solidarity you need to feel confident in your choices. You don't have to choose between your career and how you feed your baby—we’re here to help you do both.
