By Staff Author Updated on December 1, 2020 08:17 PM Share Tweet Pin Email Since the arrival of son Milo Thomas, Alyssa Milano has had no problem bonding with her nursing newborn. “I was lucky to have a baby who from the moment he came into the world, was a pro at latching on,” the New Year’s Eve actress, 38, tells Best for Babes. “I think the thing I like best about breastfeeding is the closeness I feel to Milo and knowing that he’s getting the best of me.” And while Milano is intent on nursing her 3-month-old son, the new mom isn’t prepared to take it public. “I wish I could breastfeed in public without feeling as though a picture would show up on TMZ,” she admits. “I’ve breastfed Milo in my car numerous times and in fitting rooms at stores. But mostly, when we go out I bring a bottle of expressed milk because sadly, I’m just not comfortable feeding him in public.” From mommy mishaps to navigating life with a newborn, Milano says there’s one place she can always turn to for much-needed advice: her Twitter followers. “I can ask a question about anything at all and get a good variety of opinions from everyone,” she explains. “When I tweet about breastfeeding or baby stuff in general, it feels good knowing that women are there to support each other.” To read the full interview with Alyssa Milano, visit Best for Babes. — Anya Leon Related Articles Alyssa Milano Shares Sweet Breastfeeding Pic Before Appearing on The Talk Alyssa Milano Reveals Why Her Kids Haven't Watched 'Charmed' : 'I Kiss a Lot of Guys' Celeb Parents Offer Support for Boobie-Palooza Stars Who Breastfed Their Babies Beyond Age 2 Alyssa Milano on Learning to Love Her C-Section Scar: 'There's Something Incredibly Tribal About It' Celebrity Moms Who Tandem Breastfed #MommyGoals: Celeb Moms Who Get Glam with Their Babies Like It's NBD Alyssa Milano Says Childbirth Reminded Her of Being Sexually Assaulted: 'I Wasn't in Control' Alyssa Milano Recalls Thinking Miscarriage Was 'Karmic' Punishment for Abortions in Her 20s The Art of the Celebrity Breastfeeding Photo: From Going Glam to Getting Real Hunter McGrady Says She Feels 'Guilty' for Not Being Able to Always Provide Breast Milk to Newborn Pregnant Teresa Palmer Reflects on Breastfeeding for Past 7½ Years Straight: 'Some Days It's a Lot' Alyssa Milano and Wendy Williams Clash Over Public Breastfeeding: 'I Don't Need to See That!'
