Pumping itself can be stressful for new moms and even more when you have to do it in places like your work.
Maybe your job doesn’t offer a room that can be locked where you can pump breast milk for your baby in peace.
There is nothing worse than someone coming in when you are still learning the whole pumping process on top of the hormones that are still in your body from pregnancy and maybe some guilt of being back at work instead of being at home and spending time with your new little baby.
I get it.
But you can do it mama!
And here are a few free pumping signs you can print out and hang on the door wherever you are pumping to make people aware to not come in at all so you can express that liquid gold in peace.
No matter if you are pumping at your job, at a friends or parents house or anywhere else outside of the comfort of your own home.
To download the signs simply click on the one you like the most and it will open up a jpg file in a seperate tab that you can print and save to your computer.
If you do not own a printer you can also have it printed at any print shop near you or places like Walmart.
Of course you can also print all of them.
For more durability you can print the pumping sign and laminate it before you hang it on the door.
