When Beyoncé breastfeeds in public the “breast is best” movement gets an automatic publicity boost! The new mom is in good company with fellow famous nursing mothers.
Beyoncé is looking relaxed and confident as new mom to Blue Ivy Carter. The singer was reportedly spotted breastfeeding her baby girl while out at a restaurant last weekend.
Word of Beyoncé’s breastfeeding comes via fellow diners at Sant Ambroeus in NYC’s West Village. Us Weekly spoke to one such lunch patron, who noted the first-time mom breastfed Blue Ivy Carter during her casual lunch out with husband Jay-Z.

In December new mom Alyssa Milano opened up about her breastfeeding experience with son Milo. “I wish I could breastfeed in public without feeling as though a picture would show up on TMZ,” the actress lamented. “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.”
