DESCRIPTION:

World Breast Pumping Day, created in 2017, raises awareness and support for breast pumping, a vital aspect of many new mothers' lives. The day is rooted in the desire to normalize breast pumping and provide education about breast pumping, support breastfeeding mothers, and advocate for the necessary accommodations in workplaces and public spaces for pumping.

Breast pumps have become an essential tool for new mothers for various reasons. They allow mothers to maintain their milk supply and ensure their babies have access to breast milk even if the mother returns to work after childbirth. Pumping is also essential for premature or hospitalized infants needing the best nutrition and for mothers who face difficulties with direct breastfeeding, latching problems, or who have an oversupply of milk due to miscarriage, the child's death, or other reasons. Using one also allows other caregivers to participate in feeding the baby, promoting bonding. 

Breast milk is considered the best food for infants due to its comprehensive nutritional benefits and its role in supporting the immune system. By enabling mothers to pump and store breast milk, breast pumps contribute to the continued health and well-being of the baby.

World Breast Pumping Day serves as an opportunity to educate the public about the importance of breast milk and the role of breast pumping in supporting breastfeeding goals. It also highlights the need for societal support and infrastructure, such as lactation rooms and pumping breaks at work, to assist pumping mothers.
