The new mum has been sharing updates from her first months with her little one.
Serena Williams has been keeping fans informed about her new life as a mum and has now developed a whole new audience made up of other new mothers.
Well, Serena is now turning to them for advice when it comes to breastfeeding – or more specifically when to stop.
It’s a question many mums ask themselves, especially with their first child, and now Serena is asking them to share their thoughts.
The new mum shared a picture with her gorgeous daughter, Alexis Olympia, on Twitter today and asked followers:
“Fellow moms: How long did you breastfeed? Is it weird that I get emotional when I even just think about when it’s time to stop?”

Alexis was born back in September, and Serena is worried about when she should stop breastfeeding.
However, many of her followers were quick to share their support for the mum-of-one, reminding her that it’s totally her decision.
She so adorable, Serena! I breast feed my daughter/son a short period of time. However, I have a relative who is still breastfeeding her 24 month old. I think it all depends on the person, professional, etc. https://t.co/dRnLq5S5FQ

It’s definitely an individual choice. I went a year with my twins, but there’s no rule. Trust your instincts. ?

I stopped during summer after my daughter was born – she was starting to walk. However. I would never tell you what to do. pic.twitter.com/nSLus9jQeg

I went 2 yrs with my oldest and 3 yrs with the second. It’s different for each of us and however long you’re able to nurse is wonderful!

9 months, 6 months, and no, not weird at all. You’ll know when. Trust your instincts. You will miss it (the convenience, the bonding) but I found there was a point where I wanted my body back. Just me 🙂
