Breast feeding is a huge amount of work, asking a person to do that and have a job is a big deal. Pumping breastmilk is incompatible with lots of jobs. If they have already stopped breastfeeding they may not be able to restart.

It would be great to live in a society where breastfeeding was normal and easy. Society is crazy and women shouldn't be criticised for trying to exist within it.

Hey son, just don't eat for 4 hours...

It's not that simple, like at all. There are loads of other things to take into account too.
