So, in three weeks I am heading across the country to start interviews. Since I am BF and will be gone 2.5 weeks, I have to bring my three month old daughter. I was just wondering if any one else was going to be attempting the same thing or had attempted it and had any advice.
I have arranged for family to come in on shifts to help out, but I am still very nervous. For one, I have an interview the day after I fly out and don't know how to save enough pumped milk for that day. With the new liquid restrictions on flights, it certainly makes life difficult.
Then there is also the lovely issue of finding time to pump during the interview day and if there was any hope of not advertising the family status to programs, it definitly goes out the window with the pump requirement.
Oh, the joys of motherhood. Well, not motherhood...the joys of trying to have a life and be a doctor at the same time!
