Ok so I have been bf since my LO was born. With my oldest we did nursing and formula because I worked for a sandwich place and ther ewas no where to pump besides the public bathroom (this was almost 5 years ago). This time around I was working for a coffee shop (no longer there) and Burger King. I was debating about not bf because of where I work. Well I decided that since they have to have a place for me to pump I was going to nurse! I was talking to someone who said they quit nursing because it was too difficult where they work... (in a school) I just looked at her dumbfounded. I work from 5:30 am until 1 pm I get up every between 3 and 4 am. I need to feed Kenna and or pump plus get ready for work. I get a break between 8 and 9 am. Trying to get that set so I can get my body on a much needed schedule. Kenna is at home with daddy so he gives her the bottle I pumped around 9 am and she is ready to eat when they pick me up from work. Now also keep in mind Kenna has Milk and Soy protein intolerance. So I do not take in any dairy or soy products ( or atleast I try not too lol) Burger King does not have anything on the breakfast menu that I can eat except for hash browns. I tried making oatmeal and eat that but sometimes I dont have enough time. I did bring oatmeal with me but that didnt work for me.
So I am proud that I am continueing to bf while working ina fast food resteraunt! If I can do this so can other moms!
