THE MILK MEMOS:
How Real Moms Learned to Mix Business with Babies — and how you can, too

by Cate Colburn-Smith and Andrea Serrette

(Reviewed by Columbia Center's Ann Grauer)

If you are a nursing mom and are returning to work after having a baby or have already done so then THE MILK MEMOS is for you!

Written by two moms who worked at IBM, the book addresses the emotional issues, practical matters and has a great humor about it all. It was started as a spiral-bound notebook in the pumping room by two moms and grew to include many moms and lots of thoughts on nursing, pumping, working and mothering. And it’s small enough that you can pop it into your bag for pumping-time reading!
