Mommy Monday: Returning to Work and Breastfeeding

Have you ever wondered how to manage it all? As a mom sometimes it is hard to be able to figure out how to get it all done.

One of the most important things for me was to be able to continue a breastfeeding relationship with my daughters when I went back to work. I usually did this by pumping. I used my pump in style (medela) pump 3-4 times a day for almost a year. But the super model Miranda Kerr is able to breastfeed and work at the same time!

Life as a working mother can be quite the juggling act - just ask Miranda Kerr.

The Victoria's Secret supermodel posted a picture on her Twitter page today that showed her bonding with her baby boy Flynn between takes while on a shoot.

The 28-year-old, who is dressed in red high heels and a gaping satin robe, appears to be breastfeeding her three-month-old as she sits in a make-up chair.

Along with the picture, Miranda wrote: 'Another day in the office xxx'

The wife of actor Orlando Bloom, who returned to work two months after giving birth, has been working on several new campaign in recent weeks.

She was photographed on location in Malibu earlier this week, where she put her post-baby curves on show in a purple bathing costume for Have Faith Swimwear.

Miranda has become quite the advocate for breastfeeding and the first picture she released of the newborn showed her nursing him.

'The photo was one of the first photos Orlando took,' Australian-born Miranda later said.

'We both loved it and we wanted to share it. The pleasant surprise was that it also had the added benefit of promoting breastfeeding which to me is the most natural thing in the world and I love it.

'I intend to breastfeed for as long as I can,' she continued.

Meanwhile, Orlando, who is busy promoting his new films Sympathy for Delicious and The Good Doctor, has revealed the inspiration behind their son's name.

The actor revealed his grandmother Evelyn passed away while his wife was pregnant and Bloom said that they wanted to pay tribute to her.

Appearing on Live With Regis and Kelly on Wednesday, he said: 'I was convinced we were going to have a girl because my grandmother actually passed when Flynn was conceived and she was really dear to my heart.

'Evelyn was my grandmother, on my father's side... I was thinking Evelyn. We're going to have a girl, it's going to be called Evelyn. And it was a boy. And so Flynn! Evelyn, Flynn. Flynn, Evelyn.'
