Naya Rivera and her husband, Ryan Dorsey have one adorable little boy! As the Glee star gets settled into motherhood, Rivera recently revealed some challenges that she was having while breastfeeding her son.

Writing in her blog for People, Rivera said that she felt like she was only a "tit" to her 3 month old son, Josey Hollis. "At times I started to feel like I was only a tit to Josey and there was many a time I would walk in the door to a crying baby and immediately have to strip and feed."

The 28-year-old revealed that her home became a nursing center. Rivera claimed there were breastfeeding items in her bedroom everywhere.

"Our bedroom became a haven for all things breast; breast pads, shields, pumps and creams. One minute there’s nothing going on with your perfectly perky boobs and the next a nurse is rolling yellow stuff out of your nipple and putting it in your baby’s mouth. Things like achieving a proper latch, combating engorgement, and practicing different holds soon became my sole priorities," the new mom said.

Despite all of the drama of feeding a baby, Rivera said that it was also a an amazing bond to have with her son. "The bond between a mother and baby when you’re breastfeeding is incredible and something no one else shares with your baby." She continued, "There’s also something amazing about the fact that you are sustaining a human life solely with your body. The benefits of breast milk for babies far outweigh the negative side effects for Mom."

Rivera and her husband welcomed their first child on September 17th. The couple tied the knot back in 2014 in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico a few months after Rivera ended things with rapper, Big Sean.
