We have lactation stations (what I like to call them). I haven't seen here a push to get rid of post-pregnancy women.

At my previous job we had a woman go out on FMLA due to having a baby - no paid maternity leave there. When the woman was coming back my evil boss was trying to figure a way to fire the post-pregnancy woman. I talked with the woman privately and told her of my (female) boss continued down this path, I would be more than happy to be a witness in the lawsuit. I also tried to point out to my boss that what she was doing was flat out illegal, but she didn't care. Evil evil woman my former boss was/is.
