Is it a step towards society recognizing breastfeeding as normal for there to be breastfeeding/pumping related supplies in a vending machine? One hospital in Baltimore says yes! I want these in airports too, the times I travel and realize Ive forgotten something important like a valve for my pump this would come in handy! Johns Hopkins has 14 Mothers Rooms across all of their campuses, and each one has hospital grade breast pumps for employees to use. But only one location has a breastfeeding equipment vending machine. Its been up and running for about a month, and Stoltzfus says business has been steady. About 14 different items are stocked from top breast pump manufacturers. we offer breast pads, we offer nipple cream, full accessory kits that work with our hospital grade pumps in each of the rooms,” Stoltzfus said. “We offer bottles, sterilizing bags, its pretty comprehensive. Definitely not your typical snack station, but one that is hitting the spot here. Ok, first of all, 14 Mothers Rooms? How awesome is that? Secondly, of course business has been steady, breastfeeding/pumping is a daily thing! abc2news/news/health/vending-machine-at-johns-hopkins-hospital-dispenses-breastfeeding-equipment-for-employees
