Blake Lively opens up about motherhood, breastfeeding, and accepted aging

Blake Lively is embracing her newest and most exciting role, being a mother to her newborn daughter!

Lively opened up to Allure magazine for the May 2015 issue about how she is embracing motherhood and how she isn’t one that is obsessed with keeping her youthful appearance. The 27-year-old welcomed her first child, a daughter named James this past December with her husband of over two years, actor Ryan Reynolds.

"I feel like I've figured out the most important thing to me," Lively admitted about her family. "And everything supports that." Even with a very successful career in Hollywood and running her lifestyle website, Preserve, the actress admits that she has yet another “full-time job,” breastfeeding her daughter.

Lively’s newest movie, The Age of Adaline is set to hit theaters on April 24th, 2015, a film about a woman who is granted the ability to remain young forever. Even though Lively is in a business that is obsessed with the appearance of a person, she thinks “it’s tragic to be young forever.”

"Having a child makes you realize that we pass on for a reason. You think, 'I have to go, because it makes room for you,” Lively explained.
