Any mamas in the retail buying industry?

Hello! Finding my way over here from TTC:
As my husband and I gear up for baby #1 I'm curious if any other working moms are in the retail management/buying field. Currently my positon requires going on buying trips every few months for up to a week at a time. I know some ladies take their babies with them and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this. ((TIA)) :x

Re: Any mamas in the retail buying industry?
I oversee buying and planning the DTV portion of a smaller LA based company. Our buy trips are very short as we go to Magic in LV which can be a day trip, but we are expected to visit all of our stores (11 total). I'm a FTM with a 11 day old, do this will be new to me, but my buyer has a 2 yo and last time she had to travel to stores she drought her DD with her and her mom. I already discussed with my husband that he will probably go on one trip with me and my mom will go on the other.
Anyway, hope that helps!
Who do you work for? Where do you live? When is baby due?
