Halle Berry Lost Her Baby Weight By Breastfeeding

Halle Berry has credited breastfeeding for her recent weight loss.

Just five months after giving birth, Berry is back to her normal size, and in a new interview, she revealed that her thin frame is the result of her breastfeeding her son, Maceo.

"Every mother should breastfeed. It's the quickest way to shed the initial weight and then you have to eat right," Berry explained during an interview with Extra TV on Monday.

Berry and French actor Olivier Martinez welcomed son Maceo on Oct. 5, 2013, just months after their July 13, 2013 wedding. Maceo was the second child for the 47-year-old actress, who is also mom to daughter Nahla, 6, from her previous relationship with model Gabriel Aubry.

"I just feel great because I have another baby. I never thought that at my stage in life another baby -- and a baby boy -- was coming to me," Berry said.

Now back to work on the set of the new TV series, Extant, Berry is busy juggling her demanding career with her duties as a mom.

"What I’m learning to do, trying to right now, is find the balance… my baby is always with me on set. I bring my daughter after school. I have a nursery there, a playroom for her, so I try to make it as nice as I can for them to spend time with them, see them," she revealed.

Earlier this month, the NY Daily News reported that Berry and Martinez were living separately, and divorce rumors began to swirl. However,during her chat with Extra, Berry gushed about her husband, saying that he is "delicious" and that she is very proud of him.
