Little by little, breastfeeding is becoming more mainstream for moms. We still have a long way to go, but celebrities like Chrissy Teigen and Serena Williams are helping us get there.

We can also add Tia Mowry to the list. The actress and mom shared a sweet photo breastfeeding her 5-month-old daughter, Cairo Tiahna Hardrict, where she perfectly summed up breastfeeding in three words: “This is love.”

And the internet couldn’t agree more. Parents have flocked to Mowry’s account to praise the mom for her simple but sound description of nursing.

“Love, love, love this beautiful bond. So glad mamas like you share these sweet moments with the world. I hope more people will open up to this part of life with acceptance and love,” one follower exclaims.

“It’s definitely a sacrifice, especially if you’re a working mom… Always trying to produce enough milk for the next day, not every pumping session gives the same output, milk stash running low, skipping meals to pump, sore and busted nipples, not eating certain things so it won’t affect little one… The list goes on. Oh, yes, a sacrifice indeed, but the best sacrifice,” a mom candidly shares.

“What a wonderful thing we women are able to do with our children,” says a short and sweet message.

Another comment says it all: “Now that’s motherhood at its finest!”

Like Tia’s snapshot, these powerful photos capture the strength, determination and love breastfeeding calls for.
