Re: bfing and going back to work
I don't know why you can't pump during the day, but if it is because of your employer they can't stop you.
NEW YORK LAW:
N.Y. Labor Law § 206-c (2007) states that employers must allow breastfeeding mothers reasonable, unpaid break times to express milk and make a reasonable attempt to provide a private location for her to do so. Prohibits discrimination against breastfeeding mothers.

Thank you for posting this. I do not think that enough people are aware of this law!
To the OP, if you are out in the field, let's say, or in a setting where breaks are not predictable, then it might be harder. I'd recommend finding an LC to help you.
