‘North hates when I feed the baby’: Kim Kardashian reveals her breastfeeding struggles and says she would never do it in public

She isn’t afraid to discuss the finer points of motherhood.

And Kim Kardashian took to her website on Tuesday to discuss how she feels about breastfeeding her two-month-old son Saint.

Going into detail on the topic, she revealed she gets her two-year-old daughter North to assist with the process of feeding her newborn, as she wasn’t a fan of her brother getting all the attention.

Speaking on her website the 35-year-old said: ‘I’m not gonna lie—it can be time-consuming. 

‘For some reason, North hates when I feed the baby, and she lays on my lap so Saint can’t be right in front of me to eat, LOL!’

Kim revealed her solution to the problem was to ‘pump’ her milk and get her daughter to do the honours with a bottle: ‘That totally worked! She loved helping me, as opposed to my attention being off of her, and now she is my little helper.’

The reality star said she felt ‘super-lucky’ that she produced a lot of milk.

In fact, Kim divulged she was producing so much milk she had taken over her mother Kris’s freezer, where she is staying while her home with Kanye is being finished off.

She also gave a tip to breastfeeding mothers – use a nipple shield, saying: ‘I find the baby feeds better, and it allows me to never get irritated nipples or anything because they’re protected by the shield. 

‘The hospital suggested shields to me, since at the beginning I found nursing super painful and difficult, so I took some home and never looked back.’

Although Kim seems to be happy to divulge her thoughts on breastfeeding, she acknowledged that not everyone feels the same on the topic.

She said: ‘I know some people find breastfeeding such a private, personal experience, while other people are very open and even breastfeed in public. 

‘Now that I’m a mom, I say whatever makes you comfortable goes. I still personally wouldn’t breastfeed at a restaurant with a bunch of people I didn’t know staring at me. I’ve seen this before and remember tweeting how shocked I was. 

‘Now that I’m a mom, I’m not that shocked, especially if you have a few kids and can’t leave to breastfeed one kid in the bathroom while leaving the others at the table.’

However, despite being so open about her personal feelings, she added she didn’t feel she would ever be able to breastfeed in a public place: ‘I still personally wouldn’t do it, unless it was an emergency situation and I was fully covered.’

But the star added, if it was in front of her girlfriends, it would be different: ‘I think it’s such a natural experience and I’m not shy about that. I know so many people get backlash for posting breastfeeding pics, but I don’t mind them!’ 

However, despite saying she found it easy to produce milk, the constant demand for food from her son was leaving her sleep deprived.

She tweeted on Monday: ‘This 4 am feeding really kills me. I’m like delirious.’
