Yesterday, when I went into one of the hotel lobby bathrooms, I saw something I definitely wasn’t expecting to see.

I walked in, saw two women standing at the sink talking. I also saw their duffle bags open on the floor and it looked like they were getting changed to go up to the rooftop pool, maybe kill time until their room[s] were ready. Not unusual to see in a hotel restroom.

This was not the case.

When I came out of the stall to wash my hands, I looked in the mirror to check if my face was whereI had left it, glanced to my left and realize that they are both connected and pumping.

I smiled when they saw me and I said that wasn’t what I expected to see when I looked up. They both apologized and I told them they had nothing to apologize for. This is something they needed to do and I wasn’t bothered or put out in any way. My sister pumped and I’ve worked with women who pump, it’s important and why apologize.

I wished them well and went about my day. Good luck ladies! You have my respect!
