They have comfy chairs and sinks so works well. MrsTiz on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

If I pump here I will have to use DH's office. The only empty office is upstairs and I would feel suppper awkward going up there. bunnylove08 on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

I know it's one floor up from mine. I know it has a refrigerator and a couch and such. I'm sure i'll have it all to myself since there are basically no women at my company! purrpletulips on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

When I came back to work the first time I had to pump in our conference room and always had the fear of someone walking in on me. sunny on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

The room has a fridge, sink, bookcase where people leave their pumps and 4 pumping stations kind of the size of a change room at a store. Each station has a curtain to protect your privacy and inside there is a table, office chair and a power outlet. mrsjazz on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

It's just a random, small empty office with two desks, two chairs, and a fridge. LemonLong on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

There's an outer room with some chairs, a sink, a microwave (so you can heat up lunch while pumping) and a mini fridge/freezer and lockers to keep your pumping supplies. Then there are doors to two actual private nursing rooms which have chairs, magazines, phones so you can take conference calls while pumping, paper towel dispensers, and locks on the door.

It used to be a single bathroom but they took out the toilet, added a little arm chair and lamp, and there is still a sink. There is a small fridge outside of it but people nearby use it for lunches and stuff, so moms seem to usually keep their milk in coolers at their desk. It looks really cozy in there and sometimes if I'm having a bad day, I just want to go and hang out with the door shut. But I don't since I'm not pumping and wouldn't want to lock someone else out. We just have one for 2 floors, so the people on the other floor have to take the elevator up to use it. mrsjyw on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

There's a lounge chair, mini fridge and small table. I like that it smells sweet in there, like mama's milk. :) DillonLion on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

My company doesn't have that but I have my own office so I can just shut my door. I brought in my own mini fridge. BSB on "Does your work have a Mother's Room?

We have one on each floor (there's a total of 3). I did take a peek one day and it's pretty nice. It has a refrigerator, lounge chair and a sink (maybe?).
