In a recent YouTube vlog, Divyanka, who welcomed twin sons with husband Vivek Dahiya, shared that she is still figuring out breastfeeding, even two months into motherhood. She says, "Why does no one talk about feeding openly?" She pointed out that everyone loves talking about how breast milk is beneficial for a baby but no one talks about what the mother goes through.

Breastfeeding is often described as a natural part of motherhood, but for many women, it can come with physical, emotional and practical challenges. Popular TV actor Divyanka Tripathi has opened up about the difficulties mothers may face during this journey, drawing attention to the reality behind the often-romanticised image of breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding can be challenging

Divyanka Tripathi, has now opened up an important conversation by talking about her own breastfeeding journey, after welcoming twin boys in May this year. While breastfeeding is a natural process, it does not necessarily come easily to every mother. New mothers may experience difficulties with latching, breast engorgement, sore or cracked nipples, discomfort and concerns about whether their baby is getting enough milk.

The pressure to breastfeed exclusively can also create emotional stress, particularly when a mother is struggling with feeding or her milk supply. Lack of sleep, hormonal changes and the demands of caring for a newborn can further make the early weeks overwhelming.
