The dancer took to her Instagram page to share her breastfeeding experience, which she described as "a bonding moment." The post's lengthy caption began:

"Some of my most precious times with Zane is when I’m breastfeeding. But, it wasn’t always stress-free. Little did I know how difficult getting steady milk flow could be."

The video post is a sponsored ad for "Eu Natural," a company dedicated to helping new moms with milk supply, showed her with her newborn involved in various activities as she went about her day.

In the voice-over, she said that while breastfeeding is a way of bonding with her child, it can prove to be a tad tricky, primarily as a working mom, when you can not provide as much milk, and so the need to pump and store arises.

So taking the pill created by healthcare professionals from the company helps to get the milk flowing as much as possible. She added in the caption for the video that the product "Nourish" is a must for mothers and promotes lactation health, making it easy to ensure that her son eats well.

Burgess ended the caption by emphasizing that the pill takes pressure away from worry, especially as a first-time mom. She asked fans to check out the link on her bio, reminding them also to read the reviews alongside hashtags "milk supply," "newmomlife," "postnatal," and "lactation." 

The product seems to be doing a great job as the couple's baby boy is growing up looking as healthy as can be, as evidenced by the posts they have been sharing with their followers, especially his 2-months milestone in August. The Blast shared that the couple celebrated the day with touching posts.

Green also took to his Instagram page to share the moment before she even got a chance to. The picture showed the proud dad smiling at his little one strapped closely to his chest in a child-carrying harness. The post with caption that read, "Getting so big so fast! Almost two months already," was flooded with sweet messages from his followers as they joined the celebration.

For Burgess, it was an equally sweet moment, mainly because this is her first child; she used the post to share her progress with motherhood with a heartwarming video. The song "Moments We Live For" by "In Paradise" played, Burgess cradled her baby to her chest as he napped. The 37-year-old rocked her baby as she lay on the bed dressed casually in a white tank top and gray sweats with her hair in a bun.

The "DWTS" Star Announces Brief Hiatus From Hit Show

The professional dancer who has been with the famous competition for over ten years decided to take a brief break, as reported by The Blast. The "So You Think You Can Dance" alum decided to be present in her son's early years and take pleasure in being a new mom.

Via a video on Instagram, she explained to fans that to be on the show, she had to be at least ten hours away from her son for travel, hair, makeup, and prep time which she was not ready for as a breastfeeding mom. 

She added that while it was a hard decision to make, she had to do it to be present in her child's growing years, and although she may not appear on the show as a contestant, she would appear in a different capacity being discussed with the team.

She cleared the air by emphasizing that the decision was not because of her body, letting everyone know that she was in tip-top shape and could perform at any time. While admitting that the new show promised to be beautiful and spectacular, Burgess could not help but maintain that she would rather stay at her son's side to create their special bond while watching him grow.
