Sorry to burden you with emails on the topic but at least ONE faculty
member knows about the lactation room and has informed me that there is
a small refrigerator in the room, a hospital-grade Medela pump, a chair
and some magazines.

After an interesting series of emails and some personal
investigation, this is what I can tell you...
PUH F950 is the only Lactation Room at present. To obtain a key,
you have to contact Brenda Smith at Patient Relations (7-9150)- I
believe there is a $30 deposit required. I wasn't able to get into the
room but my understanding is that there is no refrigerator. I will see
if space can be made available in MUH but don't hold your breath.

Does anyone have any tips on how to maintain
breastfeeding an infant while on busy clinical service in Presby/Monty.
I know the whole "pump, pump often" deal but without an office or call
room in either building, would it be a pipe dream for me to think I
could continue giving my baby breastmilk to 12 months like what the AAP
recommends?
