Breastfeeding played big part in getting back into shape, says Lisa Haydon

Model-actress Lisa Haydon on Monday posted an image on social media of her breastfeeding her 3-month-old son. She also wrote that the experience has helped her get back in shape.

Haydon's son, Zack Lalvani, who she had with husband Dino, was born on 17 May. In an accompanying post she stressed the importance of breastfeeding, on the last day of the World Breastfeeding Week.

She wrote: "I've gotten loads of posts asking about life after having my son, especially to do with weight and fitness. Seeing it's World Breastfeeding Week -- time to give some credit where credit is due."

Just days after delivering her baby, Haydon made an appearance at the Paris Fashion Week showcasing her svelte figure in a red designer dress with a plunging neckline.

"Breastfeeding has played such a big part in getting back into shape after giving birth to my baby. Breastfeeding has been challenging and time consuming (literally hours spent every day trying to stimulate milk supply), but it's such a beautiful way to bond and connect with your child plus all the nutritional benefits that your child gets from your milk," stated the actress, who was seen in films like Aisha (2010), Queen (2014) and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (2016).
