Ashley Graham is sharing the personal reason she decided to stop breastfeeding her twin sons when they were 5 months old.
The 35-year-old model said on “The Daily Show” Tuesday that with her first child Isaac, now 3, she thought she could “only breastfeed,” but learned she had to set boundaries for her own well-being with her twin sons Malachi and Roman.
“I was like, ‘I’m not doing this. This is not working here,'” she told guest host Chelsea Handler, saying breastfeeding the twins was “a lot of work.”
The model said she ended up switching her twins to formula. Both sons, now 1, are currently doing just fine, she said.
“I stopped breastfeeding when they were 5 months and I gave them the best formula I could find in America,” she said. “…And these little guys are so strong and so happy, so I don’t think we should be telling people how they should be feeding their kids.”
