The episode discusses the experiences of three mothers as they navigate breastfeeding and returning to work at five months postpartum.

We're continuing our year-long series where we follow three women on their breastfeeding journeys. How are our moms feeling now that the babies are five months old? Have they established routines to help them through the day? What's their experience been after returning to work? And have they been able to successfully manage all this while maintaining their milk supply and storage? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
