What I pump in a day at work!

Just a nurse mom pumping during my 12hr shifts #pumpingjourney #pumplife #pumpingmilk #pumpingmotivation #breastfeedingmomma

2025/6/11 Edited to

As a nursing mother who exclusively pumps during work hours, I’ve devised a schedule that balances my shifts and my baby’s feeding needs. Throughout my 12-hour shifts, I adapt my pumping routine using a portable pump, which is especially convenient for busy moments, such as when I'm driving. In a typical day, I perform five pumping sessions: starting with a morning pump after feeding my baby, then continuing with two work pumps and a final evening pump after a cuddle session. Each of these sessions yields a different amount, but combined, they help meet my baby’s daily needs of 22-25 oz. I utilize a haakaa on my days off to supplement as necessary. The pump settings of my Spectra are carefully adjusted for optimal extraction, ensuring I efficiently collect breast milk throughout my shift. With proper planning and a supportive environment, pumping at work becomes a manageable, if not rewarding, part of my routine. I encourage other working moms to embrace their pumping journeys—sharing tips and experiences can make a tremendous difference in navigating this challenging yet fulfilling time in motherhood.
