Singer Shakira has revealed that breastfeeding baby son Milan helped her get back in shape after giving birth.
The 'Voice' coach and partner Gerard Pique welcomed Milan in January, and Shakira later admitted that pregnancy had taken a toll on her body.
Shakira spoke about her attempts to get fit again and said that breastfeeding was as beneficial to her as it was to her baby, reported Digital Spy.
"I'm not back all the way to my old self, but I look decent now, I think. What has helped me a lot was breastfeeding, and I'm so hooked, I'm telling you, I think I'm going to keep breastfeeding this baby until he goes to college because I can't stop," she said.
Shakira also disclosed that Pique chose the name Milan for their newborn son as part of a special agreement.
"I already chose the name of our next baby girl, but I won't say.
