New motherhood is a wild ride of emotional and fulfilling ups and downs. Many famous moms over the years have opened up about their journies of motherhood in ways that highlight just how life-changing and extraordinary their experiences have been.
Actress, director and activist Eva Longoria is a new mother and she’s been documenting her experiences on social media in a transparent and lovely way.
She and her husband welcomed their little bundle of joy, a boy, into the world just 4 weeks ago.
Their son’s name is Santiago Enrique and the new mom took to Instagram this morning to showcase her new hairstyle courtesy of this new chapter in her life.
A makeup-free Longoria has a loose, side-swept updo that she’s rocking as she enjoys some skin-to-skin contact with her baby.
Longoria contemplates her hairstyle being the “official hairstyle of breast feeding” in her caption.
Funnily enough, she tags fellow new mom Chrissy Teigen in her post.
Teigen gave birth to her second child, a boy, just 9 weeks ago and has had her fair share of funny mommy moments.
Especially this time around with her second child. She also has Luna, age 2.
Earlier this week, Teigen shared a video of her trying to salvage spilt breast milk.
Teigen used a syringe and a scoop in an attempt to shovel and pick up as much of the milk as possible.
Teigen has had some issues with lactation and tweeted that she’s envious of women who have “plentiful boobies.”

Teigen admitted to using plenty of formula to mix in with her breastmilk for enhanced volume.

Teigen posted another video saying that “every drop counts” when dealing with a scarcity of breast milk.
Lactation issues are common in some women but there are ways to potentially increase supply which include specific teas, tinctures and supplements.
All in all, it looks like these Hollywood moms are doing great and reaching out to one another for guidance and support.
