I have the impression that there is a movement among celebrities who have been mothers recently: they no longer hide that less friendly side of motherhood and they do not mind posting photos on their social networks with dark circles, looking tired, breastfeeding or using a breast pump … a sign that things are changing and that it is finally ceasing to be a taboo to talk about how sacrificed it is to take care of a baby and how tired mothers feel.
The photos have received more than 846,000 “likes” and 3,772 comments full of compliments towards the Italian influencer and her commitment to breastfeeding little Vittoria . In the second, by the way, you can see him using the Medela Swing Maxi Breast Pump, which was the same one I used and which I thought was wonderful.
Personally, I think it is an act of courage to upload some photos like these when your business depends entirely on your image … I have uploaded some while breastfeeding and believe me, I thought about it more than three times before doing it. I love that someone with such visibility does it and that society is finally accepting that breastfeeding your baby is the most natural act in the world and that you have to hide to do it, or censor images where you appreciate a mother breastfeeding to your baby, it doesn’t make any sense.
