Got milk?
Ireland Baldwin gushed about being able to feed her daughter, Holland, straight from her “milk jugs.”
“I think yesterday was international breastfeeding day?” she captioned a selfie on Instagram of herself holding the 2-month-old, whose face was not shown. “Regardless of how you chose to feed your baby, a happy, fed baby is all that matters.”
The former model said that she initially did not want to breastfeed her daughter for her “own personal reasons.”
However, she said it turned out that she and the newborn “were kind of good at it!!!”
“She was supplemented with formula and still gets formula/breast milk combo!” she added. “I take pride in my ability to feed her with these milk jugs but I also love that she’s taking well to all of the options!
“Regardless of what you’re doing, just know, you’re doing a good job!!! In case someone hasn’t told you that lately.”
Fans praised Baldwin, 27, in the comments section of her post for being so transparent about her breastfeeding journey.
“Thanks for this! Many moms need to hear they are doing a good job no matter if they are formula or breast fed,” wrote one fan.
“More Moms should build each of their up. Society isn’t easy,” added another.
“You look beautiful. And thank you for supporting women who feed and love their babies in both ways. My son is 22 but I remember the pressure. ❤️,” commented a third supporter.
“Thanks for normalizing that a well fed baby is most important,” said another user.
Baldwin announced that she gave birth to Holland, who she shares with boyfriend RAC, in May.
The daughter of Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger was candid about her pregnancy journey, admitting that carrying a child was physical “warfare” on her body.
“Bitch, I don’t sleep,” she captioned a lengthy January Instagram post in part. “I’m exhausted. I’m unmotivated. I feel like life is passing by and my career hasn’t even begun.”
However, Ireland thanked 38-year-old RAC — born André Allen Anjos — for being her “everything” during her “bridge troll” phase.
