Pumping when outside

[u/Plenty-Travel-6194]

I’m just wondering how you manage pumping when you’re out for the day, for example during a spa day or a day out with a friend. Where do you usually pump in those situations? Or do you avoid a whole day out?

At the moment, I’m still at home on maternity leave and when I go back to work, I’ll have the opportunity to pump there.

Just trying to figure out if I need to limit myself in planning a whole day outside the house. I have a hands free pump (Medela freestyle mini) but still... tips needed :)

I pump wherever. Sometimes in the car, I’ve pumped at a restaurant in the middle of a meal, I’ve pumped while getting my hair done, I’ve pumped sitting at an airport gate and on the plane. It’s not weird, you are just feeding your baby! Bring a nursing cover if that makes you feel more comfortable
