Three days on, Snooki is already loving motherhood.
The pint-sized Jersey Shore star welcomed her first child, son Lorenzo, with fiance Jionni LaValle on Sunday. Since his birth, Snooki, 24, has been answering fan questions about her life as a new mom.
“Are you nursing?” one fan asked Tuesday. “If so shout it out proud!” Snooki (real name: Nicole Polizzi) proudly responded, “I love nursing my little man!”
In June, Snooki had told Good Morning America that she was nervous about breastfeeding.
“I’m just scared,” Snooki explained to GMA. “My friend did and she said it was so painful…but I definitely want to pump because it’s the best nutrients for the baby.” But she didn’t love the idea of pumping either, adding, “It’s kind of like you’re a cow and you’re just milking.”
But now that baby Lorenzo has arrived, Snooki has apparently changed her mind. When asked to encourage an expectant female fan, she wrote, “All the pain and anxiety is so worth it. Xoxo.”
The first-time mom also shared a snapshot of her son’s nursery, with his named spelled out above his leopard-print changing table with sports-themed decals on the front.
“My world,” she captioned the photo. She also shared, “Lorenzo is even cuter today. I’m so lucky.”
