Miranda Kerr says breastfeeding makes her feel like a 'milkmaid'

Breastfeeding may have helped model mum Miranda Kerr spring back into shape after giving birth to her son but she admits that it makes her feel like a 'milkmaid'.

Orlando Bloom’s Australian stunner was sashaying along the catwalk in her swimsuit just seven months after baby Flynn arrived.

But the blue-eyed brunette admits that balancing her demanding fashion schedule with motherhood isn’t easy.

She told the Sydney Morning Herald: "I am breastfeeding and pumping.

"When I am at work, I am pumping. I feel like a milkmaid, but it is worth it."

Kerr gave birth to bouncing baby Flynn - who weighed in at 9lbs 12oz - in January.

He's the first child for the Victoria's Secret model and hubby Orlando Bloom.

And like so many other mothers, she credits breastfeeding with helping her quick weight-loss.

"He's a hungry little boy," she told Us Weekly magazine back in April.

Kerr also this week admitted she 'didn't realise how challenging it is being a mother and working'.

But she stressed that being a full-time mum to Flynn and wife to actor Bloom, 34, comes first.

"My priority is to be with [Flynn]," she added. "So I am very selective with [the jobs] I do."
