The tender mother and son clip was set to a cover of Billy Joel’s song ‘Vienna’ with the lyrics ‘Slow down, you’re doin’ fine/ You can’t be everything you wanna be/ Before your time.’
Her friends and followers were quick to reassure her, with one writing, ‘Olivia this is just perfect. The moment. The mama. The baby. Hang in there!!’ Another one added, ‘You are a rockstar.’

Munn has been open about her postpartum challenges, including her struggle to breast feed.
In January, the X-Men: Apocalypse star reached out for others’ opinions on the matter: ‘Any other moms takin all the supplements and teas and tinctures yet barely make milk?’ she asked her Instagram fans and followers.
Later she wrote, ‘8 weeks in and I’ve taken a million vitamins, countless teas, lozenges, tinctures and worked with two lactation consultants. Breastfeeding. Is. Hard.’
