Well, she has said in the past that she breastfed Shiloh, and when they were in people when the twins were born I'm pretty sure she said she was breastfeeding them.

Beautiful picture, she looks absolutely gorgeous!

Did anyone read the comments? The usual bf in public debate. This comment was my favorite:

...NO it is not all that healthy for babies. If a mother starts smoking as soon as she comes home from the hospital, starts drinking again, eats hot sauses, eats too much of the wrong things, takes drugs,,,,,even aspirins can ALL effect the baby. Breast feeding was touted to get women on welfare to stop using so much formula...

:rolleyes:

When I first started I was constantly hungry, and the weight melted off (sorry those of you that have sturggled). Now that DD is 6 months I am back to my normal weight, but I would love to lose 10-15 more pounds. I feel like I am holding on to weight. We'll see if I lose any when I stop, but that won't be for awhile yet.

What a beautiful picture!

And a great step in making NIP more "normal" in our culture.

She looks like a beautiful and tired momma... maybe the tired part is a bit of projection.

Actually, what I REALLY ate was a dunkin' donuts bagel. My DH bought it for me that morning but I couldn't eat it b/c of my epidural. Then my dad brought me a big ass cheesesteak a few hours later. Bad mommy!!

I think I read somewhere that they don't have nannies, just family to help. Don't know how true that is, but she must be drained if it is.

It always cracks me up when people make comments directed toward the celebrity (or their spouses in this case). Do they really think that Brad Pitt is reading their comment?

I think it is an absolutely beautiful photo.

I saw this earlier but couldn't get back to the computer to post it. I think she looks more beautiful in that picture than on any red carpet.

It's nice to see a celebrity breastfeeding. I know a lot have talked about it, but not all of them are willing to be photographed nursing. Not saying that they should have to put that out there, but it's really nice to see.

(Also sorry to those who held on to unwanted weight.)
I have to be careful not to drop too much when nursing.
Lily is 4 months old now and I've been in my old jeans for about a month now. My skin is still wrinkly when I lean over, and I muffin top, but I'm about 110 again and I was only about 97 when we conceived.

I'm afraid I'll get too light. I don't keep weight on very well. I never could. I would have liked to have stopped losing at around 115.

I'm dying to start exercising again, but I'm kinda worried about losing more. But I need the activity.

And about Angelina - that's a beautiful pic. I remember her pics in people showed her bra strap & it was a nursing bra.

Yes, I remember that pic too! I have always been naturally thin and was a little heavier than my normal when I got pregnant....we had just gotten back from a cruise.
You can certainly exercise! I mostly walk with DD b/c I don't want to leave her at my gym's daycare, and I don't really have anyone to watch her during the day. I know plently of people that can't keep weight on. I would venture to say that it's just as difficult and not being able to take it off, KWIM?

I agree that it's a nice picture. However, I don't remember her lips being so large; she reminds me of Steven Tyler in the picture.
