pumping is actually a pain in the ass, and it wasnt until recently that women were offered protections for pumping in the workplace (thanks obama!). thats what my wife had to do. she would pump at work and put the bottles in a fridge to take home. for a given time frame, pumping will give you about half the amount of milk that the baby would normally be able to extract. thats not to mention all the clean up and sanitization of parts. its not easy so i can see why people give up
