Halle Bailey is remaining very candid with her social media followers in sharing her experience since becoming a new mom. As The Shade Room previously reported, Bailey and her boyfriend revealed the birth of their son earlier this month.
The revelation came on the heels of Bailey keeping her pregnancy under wraps.
On Wednesday, January 24, Bailey took to Snapchat to get transparent with fans. The 23-year-old shared a photo of herself with her tank top lifted over her bra in what appeared to be a dressing room.
Bailey then added context before requesting advice from other mothers.
“mama had to pump! any mommies who breastfeed and go to work while having to take pump breaks? any advice for me? i’ve been trying to remember to pump but sometimes i just skip some sessions because it’s hard to keep up,” she wrote.
Additionally, in a post shared before that one, Bailey gushed over her “boys.”

Social media users quickly entered The Shade Room’s comment section to share their advice for Bailey.
While Instagram user @milkymamallc added, “@hallebailey pumping routinely is so important for your milk supply. It’s better to pump every 2 hours for just 5 minutes than spacing pumping sessions out and pumping for a longer duration.”
Instagram user @jakademik_md wrote, “My wife be using that handheld willow pump, it’s pretty clutch, we just be talking and I hear ‘wooshu wooshu wooshu’ like oh I didn’t even know you were milking yourself rn, weird but cool”
As The Shade Room previously reported, Bailey and DDG shared their son, Halo, with the world on January 6. At the time, the couple shared a photo of them holding the infant’s hand.
A few days later, DDG took to YouTube to share snippets of Bailey’s baby bump. He also revealed that Halo was born last year. However, they previously made a mutual decision to keep their parenthood journey private.
“I’m a dad. I’m a dad, y’all. I have a son — I have a baby boy. He’s a newborn — he was actually born last year [but] we were just waiting on the right time to basically break the news or whatever. It’s been a lot of speculation,” he explained at the time.
Since then, Bailey has remained candid with fans and even opened up about her postpartum fitness goals before sharing an exclusive look at her maternity photoshoot.
Bailey’s sister, Chloe, has also opened up about her sister’s pregnancy and becoming a new aunt.
