While certain societies in the world still stigmatise breastfeeding, more and more celebrities are putting in efforts to normalise it. Supermodel Emily Ratajkowski is the latest one to jump the bandwagon.
The beauty became a mother early this year and took to Instagram recently to share a picture of herself breastfeeding her adorable baby.
Ratajkowski shared the heartwarming picture with a caption that read, “If it seems like I’m always breastfeeding it’s because I am.”
In October last year, Ratajkowski announced her pregnancy, and also shared an essay for Vogue, where she shared that she would let her child choose their gender.
“When my husband and I tell friends that I’m pregnant, their first question after ‘Congratulations’ is almost always, ‘Do you know what you want?’ We like to respond that we won’t know the gender until our child is 18 and that they’ll let us know then,” she wrote in the essay.
“My husband likes to say that ‘we’re pregnant’. I tell him that while the sentiment is sweet, it’s not entirely true. I resent that his entire family’s DNA is inside of me but that my DNA is not inside him. ‘It just seems unfair,’ I say, and we both laugh. It’s kind of a joke, but just like the remark we make about our child’s gender, there is truth behind it,” she had mentioned in the essay.
