Julie’s journey
We met Julie just hours before she returned to work at the Children’s hospital — feeling all the feelings, planning out her pumping schedule, and getting in some playtime with her son. She spoke about her seven-year struggle to get pregnant, and the gratitude she now feels to have a healthy, happy baby.

Real talk: "My biggest surprise about motherhood was how much I could actually love this little human being. I'm a pediatric nurse so I've been around babies a really long time — but [having my own was] a different feeling for sure."
On the next chapter
“I am feeling a little anxious and scared, but confident that at least my breastfeeding journey will still continue. I’m going back to who I was prior to having a baby. I feel as if I’m getting back to myself [and] I’m just excited to get back to it.”

On peace of mind
“Having a wearable pump like the Willow 3.0 is pretty helpful to me — being able to take out the bag and put it in the freezer, and not [having] to worry about contaminating it at the hospital… before getting a wearable, I was [using] a pump that was plugged in, it had so many things to clean, and I was super worried about having to keep it all sterile at work. This is a game changer for me.”
What’s the best thing about being a mom?
Being able to see things that he’s seeing. He’s interested in so many different things – for you and me it’s mundane, but for him it’s amazing, and it’s really fun to see it through his eyes.
