Sniper

I carry the black bag with all the equipment to a quiet, private room where no one will most likely disturb me. I unzip the bag and pull out the parts, one by one, laying them out before me. I carefully assemble the parts, making sure they fit tightly, yet taking car to not jam the fine pieces. Sometimes this process makes me feel like a sniper getting ready for a hit, then I plug the the machine into the power outlet, take out my breasts and am ready to pump. I've been pumping breastmilk at work for seven and half months. I am planing on stopping on July 5, 2012 when Lani turns 11 months. I hope to continue nursing her in the evenings and weekends when I am with her.
