This New Org Is the Answer for Breastfeeding Moms on the Go
Any breastfeeding mom knows that finding a place to pump when you can’t be with your kiddo can be a challenge. And this is especially true for moms on the go, working or not. Thankfully, there is a new organization looking to offer up a solution.

If Lee can make Mommy Pod financially sustainable, she would like to turn it into a real thing. Women have already taken to Twitter to ask for Mommy Pod at their tech conferences, so hopefully we’ll hear about their first round of funding soon.
If the tech industry expects to gain more female contributors, they need to keep thinking seriously about how to make things safe and happy for working moms. Also a little free coconut water never hurts!
Working moms, moms on the go: What improvements a la Mommy Pod would make your life easier or better? Tell us in the comments!
