I pump in the bathroom at work. Not my ideal location but a mom's gotta do what a mom's gotta do!
I also occasionally pump at home.

I was an exclusive pumper, so I spent a lot of time pumping in the car and bathrooms.

I pumped at home and while at work in the "first aid" room by security, but I picked storage room on your poll because it felt more like a storage room and not a place I would want to go when injured.

In a mother's room on the computer tech floor across from the freight elevator.

I voted for 3 - other, home, and car. "Other" because we have a mother's room at work that I pump in.

@Mrs. Pen: I know. But it doesn't work. I have that issue sometimes, in certain posts I can edit polls and some I can't!

I voted other. I pump in an empty office. Although they are storing stuff in here so I guess it's also a storage room. I'm pumping right now!

When I pumped it was in the bathroom, the worst was when people would knock on the door interrupting me.

Lucky to have my own office at work, and then at home as well sometimes after LO goes to bed.

I voted "storage room" even though my LO isn't here. But I'm a school librarian, and I have a back storage room (that's pretty organized and not dark or dank) and I assume next year I'll turn off the main library lights to signal I'm unavailable and go back into the locked storage room.
Of course, I still have to get this approved by my boss. But I'd rather be in my own library storage room than in a random staff bathroom.

Pumping in the bathroom sounds awful I'm not sure where you live ~ but in California it's state law for your work place to provide you with a sanitary location to pump privately - and bathrooms don't count! I would look into your rights if I were you. Of course if you're doing it by choice than that's different Just looking out for a fellow mom's comfort!

@rrachael: haha it IS awful! But I totally thought it was a law too in NY State. But another Bee pointed me to a state site that said's it's not.

I pump in my classroom at school. It's definitely not as bad as it could be. If I needed to pump during a class (which I don't), I could use a counselor's office, but the office is really far away...glad I don't have to!
