It's a magical time of year! It's easy to forget that it's not all festive fun for everyone. As you prepare for holiday parties, consider the nursing mom:
> Create a comfortable pumping/nursing space
> Coordinate with her schedule
> Offer nonalcoholic drinks
> Check in with her

@boobbatical Breastfeeding was one of the most challenging things I've ever faced but it was also one of the most rewarding. I want EVERY mom to have the support she needs to reach her breastfeeding goals so she has the opportunity to experience that fulfillment in her life, too.

@theuglyvolvo your Nurturing essay in Pretty Bitches is perfection 👌

@boobbatical Thank you, @ajb0nd, for supporting my breastfeeding journey (and the launch of Boobbatical!). The girls and I are so lucky to have you 💓

[Amanda Bond @ab_bond007]

Nursing moms need more than just a closet or extra meeting room 💛

[Boobbatical @boobbatical]

Lactation room, quiet corner, pumping space – it goes by many names but is it meeting the needs of the nursing moms in your organization? Better yet, is it setting you apart from other employers and attracting talent? Here's our tips for pumping accommodations in the workplace.

[Boobbatical @boobbatical]

Given the challenges nursing moms face, we were curious how long you (or your partner) were able to breastfeed. Feel free to elaborate in the comments! #breastfeeding #Poll

[Amanda Bond @ab_bond007]

@boobbatical I only made it 7 months with our first (and that was with formula supplementation). I'm insanely proud that I've been able to make it over a year with our second! I had to pause my career to make it happen but it's been well worth it ❤️

[Amanda Bond @ab_bond007]

Even with the most supportive partner and manager, the seven months I spent pumping for our first daughter were absolutely miserable. It was a blur of depressing lactation rooms, missed meetings, and tears. I barely had time for a bathroom break! #workingmoms need more support

[Boobbatical @boobbatical]

#workingmoms often prioritize the needs of their family over their own wellbeing; layering in breastfeeding can leave them even more overwhelmed and exhausted. In support of #NationalWomensHealthWeek, take a moment to put yourself in their shoes: https://t.co/RZCMkrOXFj

How fitting to read your "Mom" essay on #MothersDay2023 @IrinaReyn1 "It is a heavy word reserved for worthier women". You captured the feeling so perfectly!

[Boobbatical @boobbatical]

Happy #mothersday weekend to all the moms, stepmoms, and caregivers out there! May you be showered with well-deserved gratitude today and be treated like the amazing person you are every day. #momsrock

"Companies with a strong track record and emphasis on gender issues are 15% more likely to have higher earnings than their peers." ⬅️ A tangible ROI proofpoint for providing more meaningful support when employees return from maternity leave.

[Amanda Bond @ab_bond007]

Sad to see employers aren't willing to see past traditional concepts of employment and realize the talent right in front of them. Moms have an incredible amount of stamina and can be some of the hardest working, most dedicated employees!
