Celebrating her daughter’s first birthday, Alyssa Milano posted an adorable throwback snap from her daughter’s first moments.

The 42-year-old looked radiant in the breastfeeding pic, writing alongside it: “Happy Birthday, my beautiful Elizabella. You've taught me that my heart has no end. You were the missing piece to my soul. Thank you for choosing me.”

Alyssa has been open about breastfeeding her young daughter, but finds criticism over her candid images bewildering.

The Charmed actress explained to Entertainment Tonight: “I don't care… I’m going to keep breastfeeding, maybe even until she is 6!”

Alyssa continued: “Everyone's fine with her [Miley's] nipples being out.

“I think people are more comfortable sexualising breasts than relating them to what they were made for, which is feeding another human.

“When you have these babies, that connection is so meant to be and so profound

“You look at them and you go, "Oh, this is why. This is why I went through everything in my life.”
