Emily Ratajkowski joked she’s ‘always breastfeeding’ in a sweet social media post with her gender-neutral baby who she gave birth to last month.
Over the past few weeks, the model has been sharing cute snaps on Instagram of her firstborn, who she named Sylvester Apollo Bear.
Captioning her latest photo, she wrote: “If it seems like I’m always breastfeeding it’s because I am.”

The 29-year-old’s post has received tons of support from fellow parents.
One said: “He is so big and he needs a lot of milk obviously, you’re doing great mama!”
Another added: “Such a special time, enjoy every second.”
“Isn’t it the best experience of bonding with your baby? I loved breastfeeding both of my children,” a third commented.
Ratajkowski confirmed she was expecting in last year’s October edition of Vogue magazine.
In the feature, she wrote an essay about how she and her husband, Sebastian Bear-McClard, had decided to raise their child gender-neutral.
It read: “When my husband and I tell friends that I’m pregnant, their first question after ‘Congratulations’ is almost always ‘Do you know what you want?’”
“We like to respond that we won’t know the gender until our child is 18 and that they’ll let us know then.
“Everyone laughs at this. There is a truth to our line, though, one that hints at possibilities that are much more complex than whatever genitalia our child might be born with: the truth that we ultimately have no idea who – rather than what – is growing inside my belly.”
The ‘Blurred Lines’ star said she wants to make sure there are as ‘few gender stereotypes’ put on her child as possible.
She added: “I don’t like that we force gender-based preconceptions onto people, let alone babies.”
