Question Hi everyone! We are taking our 4 yr old daughter to Disney in April. My 4 mo old son will be staying with my father-in-law. I exclusively breastfeed and will need to pump during our trip to WDW. Is there places where I can pump and store milk?

- Asked by Tanya on 2/5/2013
Answer Tanya, what fun to spend a little quality time with your four year old and how wonderful to have your father-in-law to step in with your baby while you are gone. We took my oldest son about that age to spend some much needed time with him after our daughter was born. He felt very special getting some one on one time with us without his little sister occupying all of our time.

In each of the four theme parks are Baby Care Centers that have private nursing rooms with rocking chairs. Now, while I understand you won't be "nursing", the privacy of these rooms would make it easy to pump. There really isn't an area to "store" your milk within the parks, so you might want to consider taking a cooler into the parks. If you are staying on property, most resorts have small fridges in the rooms that you could store the breastmilk in when you return to your room.

I hope this helps you in your planning. Have a magical trip with your little one and feel free to stop back by to ask me more questions if you have them.
