The model shared a candid photo of herself breastfeeding the three-week-old, with the simple caption “Beautiful boy.” Fans flooded the comments section of the intimate and gorgeous photo with dozens of heart emojis. Ratajkowski called her baby’s March 8 birth “the most surreal, beautiful, and love-filled morning of my life.” Sylvester is the first child for Ratajkowski and husband Sebastian Bear-McClard.

Everyone laughs at this. There is a truth to our line, though, one that hints at possibilities that are much more complex than whatever genitalia our child might be born with: the truth that we ultimately have no idea who—rather than what—is growing inside my belly,” she wrote in an essay for Vogue. “I want to be a parent who allows my child to show themself to me,” she added. Now that baby Sylvester is here, we can’t wait to see more beautiful moments on his famous mama’s Instagram.
