“But, I don’t understand why... Breastfeeding is essential for even the child’s health, as milk is known to be the healthiest of all things. So, it’s important for the child to get it. It keeps their gut healthy, strengthens the immunity system and helps in the overall growth.”

In the same interview, Sana also revealed how breastfeeding helped her shed her pregnancy weight. The former actress revealed shedding over 15 kgs in one month and stated:
“Not that it was on top of my list to lose weight and get back in shape after delivery, but it feels good. Breastfeeding has helped me lose almost 15 kgs in one month. I was surprised as well but it’s scientifically proven that breastfeeding results in weight loss.”
Sana also shared her thoughts on breastfeeding in public. The new mommy, who revealed that she is not comfortable with the same, retorted:
“A lot of new mothers may be fine with feeding the child in the public and it’s their choice, but I’m not comfortable with the idea. You always have the option to take your child to a side and feed them. Right now, my biggest worry is how will I do it when I go out for work.”
