It’s no secret that Alyssa Milano is feminist mom goals, but along with that, she truly has a way with words that makes every mom feel understood.

On Jan 7, the Charmed alum talked about “lasts” as a parent, and how hard they are as a parent. She started by saying, “I think about ‘last times’ a lot. I can’t remember the last time I breastfed Milo. He was just done.”

“With Bella, I’ve tried so hard to be aware of everything. I know the last time I breastfed her. I remember it vividly. The last time I fed anyone from my body,” she said. “I knew it was coming to an end. I saw it coming. We were in a My Gym class. She had just turned 2. There was a loud noise, she got scared, and she said, ‘chi chi mama.’ She soothed herself and that was it. She was done. That part was over.”

“I hope my kids find this post someday. I hope they’re reminded of the warmth of my bed. And who knows—this may be the last time she sleeps with me. (Doubt it, but that’s the whole point. You just never know,)” she said.

The Who’s the Boss alum ended it by saying, “Lasts! Lasts are hard.”
