Pregnancy & Newborn

Back at work and the office 'feeding room' is a storeroom with a chair in it

Returned to the office this month. On my first day HR showed me the room for nursing mothers. It has one chair, a stack of old monitors and a door that doesn't lock. I've been pumping in my car in the basement since. She's 8 months, so I'm only planning to keep this going a few more months, which makes me hesitate to push. But it shouldn't be this hard. Has anyone got their office to sort out a room like this? Who did you go to?

    go to facilities, not hr. hr agreed to the room in principle, facilities are the ones who can fit a lock and clear out the monitors. put it in an email so there's a date on it. a few months is still worth fixing, and the next person will thank you

      Update: emailed facilities on Wednesday. Monitors gone, lock fitted, and someone has added a small fridge. Took two days. Should have asked weeks ago 🙂
