In India, breastfeeding is still taboo. Women rarely discuss breastfeeding and its struggles in explicit detail. Of late, Sameera Reddy has been quite vocal about her struggles with motherhood and her baby girl.
Her latest post on Instagram reveals that she had almost forgotten about the pressure of breastfeeding and how it’s completely okay to not be perfect at the job.
This is not the first time the 34-year-old has taken to the internet to talk about the issues that crop up with motherhood. One of her other recent Instagram posts spoke about how painful the C-section surgery actually is.
Motherhood is considered a blessing and rarely do people discuss the very real pain and struggles with which it comes. From going through nine months of pregnancy to delivering the baby, the process is surely taxing. Yet, it’s hardly talked about. We appreciate Sameera opening up about the not-so-glamorous parts of motherhood and helping to empower more women talk about this side of the same!
