The actress shared that she was struggling with a low milk supply and hadn't found a solution yet. She set up a poll on her Instagram stories to see what her breastfeeding followers had to say. The options were "Y! Lactating is hard," or "Got lucky. Got milk." More than half of those who voted went for the first option.

Celeb moms get real about breastfeeding
August is National Breastfeeding Month
© <p>Getty Images </p>
Public breastfeeding in the US was only made legal in all 50 states in 2018. Very recently, mothers in Utah or Idaho were legally required to nurse in bathrooms because it was considered indecent or immodest to do so in public. While most countries around the world don't have a specific ban on breastfeeding in public, the stigma alone is often enough to force women to hide, or give up on the idea altogether. Who better to normalize this natural act than those with the biggest public platform?
Check out these other amazing celebrity mothers who bare all and share the real joys and hardships of breastfeeding. Click on and say goodbye to mom-shaming!
