Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan has revealed she feels more confident when it comes to breastfeeding in public.
The stunning actress shared a snap of herself breastfeeding her newborn daughter Delilah in a Glasgow chain of Yo Sushi.
Helen, 28, gave birth to Delilah in Glasgow's Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in June.
Helen, who is best known for playing Rosie Webster in the hit ITV soap, told her fans on social media: "I feel that breast feeding at first in public can make you apprehensive but I find the more I breastfeed in public, the more my confidence grows and it becomes like second nature to me.
"I always bring lots of blankets when I’m out and about so I can cover myself and Delilah comfortably. It’s just latching the baby on first and then your away.
"I just concentrate on my baby as she is priority and don’t pay attention to anything else around me.
"I do post quite a few pictures of breastfeeding... it doesn’t make you a better mummy if you breastfeed or bottle feed.
"Every mummy works out what is best for them and their baby...breastfeeding is just something I’m passionate about."
Helen also shares a daughter, Matilda, 3, with Celtic star Scott Sinclair.
The family live in Glasgow's West End.
