Success after IF

Proper name for a pumping room?

Is it lactation room?  I have to write my boss an email because the solution our office has isn't going to work much longer (It was the bathroom on an unused floor in our building, but tenants are moving in soon).  Anyways...lactation room seems kind of blunt, but its probably correct?  Any other options? I don't know why this is so weird for me...sigh. 

Re: Proper name for a pumping room?

  • At my last job, it was called a lactation room.

  • At my job its called the "Wellness room". I used it when I was pg to lay down for a few mins when I was exhausted. I've also heard it being called the Mothers Room.

  • At my office, it's called the "Mother's Room".
    *** It's funny because I'm fat ***
  • I've decided to go with Skim's suggestion of Milk Mansion so that it will be properly opulent Stick out tongue

    "Mother's Room" it is!  Thanks!!!!

  • In reading the replies I'm just surprised at how many people's jobs offer a seperate room, that is great!! :)  I know 3 women at my old job used the boss's private bathroom b/c they wouldn't be bothered in there.  When I pumped I was able to use an office of a boss that left, so that was nice and private.  To answer your question though, I guess lactation or Mothers Room would suffice.  I think in BRU they call it the Mothers Room.

  • Ours is called the Nursing Mothers room.
  • Ours is called a Privacy Room, because it can be booked for both nursing, or persons needing a bit of privacy for insulin shots and such.  It has a sink, counter, round stool, and decently comfy chair, outlets and sharps container.

  • My work calls it a "Mother's retreat"

  • I thought it was the law to provide a private/non-bathroom place for pumping...usually refrerred to as a lactation room.  Is this wrong?  I have no idea where this is at my workplace but I guess I will ask a week or two before coming back from leave...

      I think the law is probably tied to the size of the company..it would be a "hardship" for really small companies to have to provide a place..... I'm an architect and I've never heard that it is required...
  • either 'lactation room' or 'mother's room'

  • I like titty tent (per Skimmy.)

    I am sitting here thinking a clueless boss may not "get" what a "Mother's Room" is supposed to be for - I hope I'm wrong - but you still may have to say a "Mother's Room" for nursing moms..

    Wheee!

    Companies under 50 can claim hardship, but most companies are fairly accommodating.
