'I love skin-to-skin, I love breastfeeding'
The 35-year-old also talked about the struggle her baby was having with breastfeeding due to jaundice and how it has improved for now, "[Jaundice] made it very hard for him to latch and suck, and it made it so that he was burning a lot of calories because it was so hard for him to eat, so his weight was dropping." Before adding, Now, "He's latching so well on the left side, and we're still working on the right side using non-traditional positions. But, I love it. I love skin-to-skin. I love breastfeeding."
'Right now, it's a no for me'
Heather, Strause and Tarek are a family of five and when asked if she would like to have more children in the future, she responded, "Right now, it's a no for me." She explained, "I'm also really focused on my career, and I wanna keep focusing on my career. There's a lot coming up and a lot happening. So right now, I am on maternity leave, but soon-ish I will be going back and focusing on work as well," reported E Online.
Talking about her other children, Heather said, “So, I have to see how I can balance everything: having Taylor and Brayden already, a husband, a dog, career and new baby. So, I'm going to see how we can balance it before we decide."
