Back to work tomorrow

Anyone else headed back tomorrow? 

We are lucky enough to have a friend who is a nanny.  The family that she worked for moved last week, so we hired her.  I know DS will be in good hands.  Plus DH is working from home tomorrow. 

I have 20 oz of BM in the fridge.  Plus I have a freezer stash of about 100 oz.  I have my pump parts ready for tomorrow (work provides a Lactina pump in private mothers room), bottles to pump into and a soft lunch bag/cooler to transport milk in.  

Am I forgetting anything?

    I started today.  I'm jealous of your work.  I found offices to pump in today only because many were out, I don't know what I'm going to do from here on out though.  Good luck.  I took a nursing cover just in case.

    I really can't believe places can't give women a place to pump.  I have a friend who worked for a huge company and pumped in her car every day for nine months.

    That's awesome that your workplace supports you like that! I'll be pumping in the bathroom! =)

    I go back Monday.

    Wow your work sounds really great and supportive of working moms. That's awesome and not heard of all too often. Good luck with going back it will be fine! The first week will be hard and then it will get easier and easier. Bring lots of pics :) and hopefully you'll be so busy it flies by and you're back home with your little one before you know it! I have 1 month left...but am already getting anxious about it.

    I also bring my own dishwashing soap and bottle brushes to wash the parts out and ziploc bags. I have an empty office I pump in since the classroom won't work with the windows. It's nice that you have a mothers room!!!

    I went back to work at the beginning of Dec. though DD is starting daycare on Monday...

    I feel very fortunate that my employer and my boss are both super supportive.  I work for a large corporation that is one of Working Mother magazine's 100 best companies.
