I absolutely adore her! I saw pictures a long while back of Jen in the park with Violet and she just seemed smitten with that little girl.

Good for her. That's wonderful. It's nice to see a good role model for young mothers.

One more reason to adore her! (The baby-related stuff on her show was so messed up, but I doubt she had any control over that.) That is just awesome

Nice article, but it makes it sounds like the ONLY reason is for her to lose weight.

I noticed that, but I feel that's probably the point of view of the media source, not necessarily her attitude. She might list 50 reasons why she likes bf but most magazines jump on the "you'll lose weight!" bandwagon.

No it doesn't it says:

"Exercise and healthy eating while nursing is extremely important not just to get back into shape, but to help make a healthier baby."

No mater how good something is about BF someone has to try and say "but....blah blah blah "

I saw her recently on The Tonight Show, and wondered if she was still nursing...i got the impression she was. She is so clearly in love with her child (not that they has anything to do with nursing...), and went on and on and on about everything little Violet was doing. She admitted that it probably wasnt that fascinating to anyone else, but i thought it was adorable. Ben Affleck was on recently too, and gosh...they both just seem so darned happy. Really glowing. Its very sweet.

Good for her. I just read somewhere that she won't take a movie roll unless its absoulutely fabulous, because she doesn't want to miss a minute of being with her baby.

That's great to hear! Of all the celebrity moms out there, she's one of the only ones I think would be great fun on a playdate!

Awww, that's great! I saw her on a late night show interview and she was upset about leaving her baby overnight. It made me wonder whether or not she had continued to nurse, I'm glad to hear that she has stuck with it.

Actually, from that article it's not clear that she's still BF. She says she lost all the "baby weight" by 6 weeks pp and then lost more after that, so she obviously continued nursing for a while after her 6 week checkup. It doesn't explicitely state that they're still nursing now (though I hope they are!)

ETA: after a more careful reading, it looks like Jennifer is still BF and still attempting to lose weight. The way I read it, it sounds like Jennifer wanted to mention BF as often as possible so the author threw it in with "weight loss tips".

I had Angelina Jolie pegged to go 12mo+, but she stopped at around half that.

As for Gwen, I have my fingers crossed
