Pumping for my Baby, Print of Original Drawing. Breastfeeding Art, Liquid Gold

Pumping For My Baby

A print of my original pen drawing, featuring an exhausted new mother expressing breastmilk for her baby as the clock hits midnight.

I started these drawings as late night doodles during a few trying weeks with young son. I wanted to remind myself of the parts of parenting I love, to represent the beauty and strength of motherhood that we sometimes forget when we are exhausted, doubting ourselves or giving too much thought to outsiders' opinions. 

I wanted to create a drawing based on pumping breastmilk as this is something I had to do while my son was away from me in Special Care Baby Unit during his first days, and while my daughter was ill in NICU after being born prematurely, six weeks early. It's a strange, difficult and often very isolating experience. I felt mothers who do it should be celebrated and feel empowered rather than feeling different or alone. Every precious drop is so important.
