Brooklyn Decker Just Experienced Every Mom’s Travel Nightmare
Any new mom knows that breast pumping quickly becomes a major part of your daily routine. It’s important but also relatively inconvenient – especially if you’re on a plane. Unfortunately, that’s the situation actress Brooklyn Decker found herself in yesterday.
Brooklyn left her baby at home for the first time ever yesterday to take a quick one-day trip. When her plane experienced mechanical delays, the flight crew reportedly told passengers they could deplane if they wanted to. So Brooklyn did, and used the time to pump breastmilk in a restroom that wasn’t on the plane. But OMG. When she came back 15 minutes later her gate was closed and she was forced to miss her flight. Say WHAT?
Read the infuriating story in Brooklyn’s own words below:
First time leaving baby. It's only 1 night & doesn't make sense to fly him back & forth. I'm a mess.
Moms: booze is my only solution,right?

2 mechanical delays. Told we could de-plane. I did. Pumped in the bathroom. Returned 15 min later. Flight closed. Deeeeep breaths.

Crazy thing is I got off to pump thinking "I don't want to offend the guy next to me" But why? He probably sucked a boob too. #winemusings

As women and as moms we try to do it all but it sure ain't easy.

Preach, Brooklyn. Preach.
