20 Celeb Moms Who Breastfed and Their Quotes About Breastfeeding (Photos)
Jennifer Garner loved breastfeeding her girls.
A mother’s decision whether or not to breastfeed her baby is one that has generated a ton of controversy in the past few years. While there are strong arguments on both ends of the spectrum, I’m a big believer in the philosophy that every woman has to do what feels best for her and her baby. What works for one may not work for another, and we should support each other instead of being judgmental.
Celebrity moms are huge fans and advocates of breastfeeding their children. In fact, it is very difficult to find much information about famous women who did not choose to breastfeed. There are a handful of them out there, but the majority of Hollywood mamas definitely think that the breast is best.
Celeb mom Jennifer Garner’s experience with nursing her two daughters turned into something much bigger than she expected. On the subject of breastfeeding, she said, ”All I ever heard was everyone bitch about it, nobody ever said, ‘You are not going to believe how emotional this is.’”
Unlike most celeb moms, Jennifer did not credit breastfeeding with helping her shed post-baby pounds. She said, “It happened to a lot of my girlfriends and sisters, and I really thought, ‘This is the ticket, the best diet in the world’ and it just wasn’t. I kept waiting, and I just didn’t lose weight. It took six months before I did. I also, though, used breastfeeding as an excuse to eat whatever I wanted. I’ve always had a flat stomach, and now everyone’s just always going to think I’m two months pregnant for the rest of my life!”
In addition to Jennifer Garner, here are photos of 19 other celebrity moms who breastfed their babies, along with their quotes about breastfeeding.
