Kim Kardashian Shares Love Of Breastfeeding, Tips For New Moms


Kim Kardashian, the lovely mom of two and superstar of the reality TV series Keeping Up With the Kardashians, is in many ways a normal person just like the rest of us. Kim shares the ups and downs of breastfeeding her newborn son, Saint, while also trying to make sure her 2-and-a-half-year-old daughter, North, doesn’t lack attention.

Like any new mom of a second child, Kim Kardashian talks on how hard it is to for North to go from being the only child with all the attention, to playing second fiddle to a needy baby brother. Kardashian says her daughter does not like it at all when she is breastfeeding the newest Kardashian, 7-week-old son Saint West.

“I’m about two months into breastfeeding and I’m not gonna lie — it can be time-consuming. For some reason, North hates when I feed the baby, and she lays on my lap so Saint can’t be right in front of me to eat, LOL!”

According to People, Kim Kardashian has expertly solved the issue by including her daughter in Saint’s feeding time. This is one tip she would share with new moms.

“I’ve started to include her: Sometimes I will pump and have her feed him the bottle. That totally worked! She loved helping me, as opposed to my attention being off of her, and now she is my little helper.”

Just that little bit of quality attention to let your child know they are not forgotten, or replaced, can go a long way to easing hurt and jealous feelings.

Kim Kardashian shares one piece of advice with new moms that helped her tremendously in her breastfeeding journey.

“I use a nipple shield most of the time when I feed. I find the baby feeds better, and it allows me to never get irritated nipples or anything because they’re protected by the shield. The hospital suggested shields to me, since at the beginning I found nursing super painful and difficult, so I took some home and never looked back.”

According to Hollywood Life, Kim Kardashian is most exhausted from her 4 a.m. feeding. While some celebrities choose to let nannies raise their children, Kim is much more hands on.

Apparently, though Kim Kardashian is a busy mommy of two, she still finds time to get out and exercise. This peaceful photograph Kim shared of her morning jog is proof that she’s running off that baby weight.

Who would have thought Kim Kardashian, superstar celebrity, would have taken to motherhood so well? Her kids are obviously well taken care of, and very well loved. Kudos to Kim for being the kind of mother every child deserves.
