Trolling Bollywood celebrity moms for their breastfeeding pictures has become a norm, unfortunately. The latest victim of trolls is the Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani actress Evelyn Sharma, who recently embraced motherhood as she welcomed her first child, an adorable baby girl. Last month, Evelyn was brutally trolled for sharing pictures of breastfeeding her two-month-old daughter Ava.

In her latest post, the actress shared why she often shares pictures of breastfeeding her daughter.
Sharing another picture of breastfeeding, she wrote, “If you’re wondering why I post photos of me breastfeeding, it’s because it’s my whole life right now. It’s a full-time job with a lot of extra hours and sleepless nights. But your payment is a happy and healthy baby which is all you want as a mommy. I don’t exclusively breastfeed though. My baby girl needs a little top up once in a while and mommy a hot bath while daddy takes over!”

Previously, responding to trolls, the actress told the Hindustan Times, “Such images show vulnerability and strength at the same time. I find it beautiful. Breastfeeding is one of the most natural and healthy things to do. And it really is why women have breasts in the first place. So why be shy about it?”

Talking about how pregnancy has changed her perception about her body, she told iDiva, “Yes, for nine months I was sharing my body. It felt surreal most of the time. Every decision I took about what to eat, how to exercise, when to rest, was not only a question about my health but primarily that of the little life growing inside of me. It feels amazing to have my body back to myself and to be able not to overthink whether I can eat something or not.”

In the same interview, sharing tips for first-time mothers who are looking for recommendations to navigate their pregnancy, she said, “Find people to speak to, it’s not easy. Ask for help when you need it, you’re growing an entire human being in a few months! Say when you need love and caring, your partner or friends may not fully understand what you’re going through, but if you need a hug or a home cooked meal, then that’s what you need and I’m sure they will provide for it. Choose a doctor you can rely on and just trust, it will make a lot of things easier when you don’t have to overthink this journey. And remember: what you’re expecting is going to outweigh all the bad and give you so much happiness that you’ll forget all about the struggle and probably want a second baby soon enough!”
