Irish Blogger Embraces Breastfeeding Selfies Trend With Beautiful Picture

Alison Bough

Irish beauty, fashion, and lifestyle blogger Grace Mongey, better known as FacesByGrace, has shared a beautiful image of breastfeeding her daughter Sienna.

Grace is just one of many mamas embracing the latest social media trend, which have become known as brelfies, in order to highlight the beauty of breastfeeding.

These ‘Tree of Life’ images are popping up all over Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and aim to normalise breastfeeding as ordinary photos transform into stunning breastfeeding art. You can make your own beautiful #treeoflifebrelfie masterpiece using the photo editing app PicsArt.

Grace told her 86.7k Instagram followers:

“Absolutely love this! Was always too nervous to share a picture of myself feeding Sienna, not now! Beautiful.”

Comments about the Irish mum’s post were overwhelmingly positive, with one Midwife stating that the brelfies would make amazing wall art. The creators of the app also commented on the image:

“So lovely! we love being able to help such an amazing movement”

We agree, the images really are SO lovely!
