There are several work-related barriers to breastfeeding among physician mothers including: lack of appropriate place for breastmilk expression, unpredictable and inflexible schedules, and lack of time to breastfeed or express milk. In a survey of physician mothers, those who were in surgical and procedural subspecialties, including anesthesiology, reported a lack of lactation facilities in close proximity to the operating room as a barrier to breastfeeding. Unlike other physicians and clinicians in different health care environments, anesthesiology is unique in that there is often no built-in time for breaks or a predictable end time to the operating room schedule. A break system is typically established, within an institution, for meal break relief for trainees, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, and Anesthesia Assistants. This system for breaks may not be sufficient to accommodate the frequency or length required for lactation sessions. In addition, these break systems do not typically provide relief for supervising anesthesiologists for meals or lactation sessions. A study of physician mothers across specialties identified anesthesiologists as significantly more likely than women of other medical specialties to self-report maternal discrimination. The study defined maternal discrimination as discrimination based on pregnancy, maternity leave, or breastfeeding. As a workforce and specialty, we must support our breastfeeding anesthesiologists and facilitate lactation needs on return to the workplace.
