Eva Amurri Explains Why She Stopped Breastfeeding Her Son

Eva Amurri Martino is opening up about why she decided to stop breastfeeding her baby boy Major after a couple months.

The 31-year-old actress is speaking out in hopes of taking away the stigma of choosing not to breastfeed your child until the recommended age of at least a year old.

Eva explained on her blog Happily Eva After that after Major was dropped by his night nurse when he was five weeks old, her “breastfeeding journey got totally thrown off.”

“While we were in the hospital with him, and in the next couple of weeks, my milk supply dipped big time,” Eva said.

“But then, my post-partum anxiety began, and my milk supply has been so troubled ever since. On ‘good days’ it was fine, and Major would be able to easily get a robust and full feeding from me�” but then on the bad days or weeks when I was having a hard time emotionally, my supply would suffer,” Eva said. “What made this even worse is how much I would blame myself for it all. I would put so much pressure on myself to battle the anxiety so that my son’s food source wouldn’t suffer.”

Eva Amurri's Night Nurse Dropped Her Son & Cracked His Skull

Eva Amurri Martino is opening up about the terrifying experience she went through when her night nurse dropped her three-month-old son Major James and caused his skull to crack.

The 31-year-old actress and daughter of Susan Sarandon explained what happened in a post on her blog Happily Eva After.

“A couple of days after Thanksgiving, our Night Nurse fell asleep while holding Major and dropped him, and he cracked his head on the hardwood floor,” Eva wrote. “Kyle [Martino] and I were sleeping at the time and were awoken by the sound of his head hitting the floor, and then hysterical piercing screams.”

“He suffered a fractured skull and bleeding on his brain, and was transported by ambulance to Yale Medical Center where I spent two harrowing days with him to receive emergency care and further testing. To say these were the most traumatic and anxious two days of my life is an understatement,” she continued.
