Jenna Dewan ditched the clothes for a more down-to-earth motherhood tactic as she bonded with her new baby in an adorable mother-daughter moment. Jenna became a third-time mom on June 14, when she welcomed daughter Rhiannon Lee Kathryn Kazee with fiance Steve Kazee. She shared her baby news with the world just days after the delivery and has since let fans in on all the joys of her new motherhood.
Taking to Instagram on Thursday, the actress shared even more highlights of motherhood. The photos featured Jenna Dewan going nude for an affectionate snap with her new baby. She appeared relaxed in the first photo, holding her unclothed baby close to her bare chest, with her eyes closed.
The second pic offered a more closeup shot of the duo, with the newborn sleeping peacefully on her mom’s chest, wrapped in an affectionate embrace. Another shot captured the baby’s tiny toes nestled on her mom’s warm skin. Finally, Jenna rounded off the photodump with a snap of the little one nibbling on her chest mounds peacefully, embracing their maternal connection. The Rookie star captioned the post,
Nothing better than skin to skin.”
Several moms trooped into the comment section to give Jenna Dewan’s baby post the thumbs up. Interestingly, most could relate to the former pro dancer’s analogy, admitting bonding with their baby “skin-to-skin” was indeed a priceless experience. One commenter wrote,
“The best feeling in the world!!!”
A second shared,
“I so miss that. Enjoy every moment.”
Another chimed in,
“Skin to skin (both parents) is probably one of the best things you could do for your newborn.”
A fourth comment read,
“The most beautiful pictures I’ve seen today. Thank you for sharing your beautiful baby with us.”
Days prior, Jenna Dewan utilized the platform to share a photodump of her first week with her new baby Rhiannon. The post, captioned “One week of bliss,” featured some memorable moments from her stay at the hospital, and her daughter’s grand welcome into their loving home.
One of the snaps showed Jenna’s fiance Steve Kazee lying shirtless on a couch, with his newborn daughter soaking up the warmth of his chest. In another, the actress gracefully breastfed her baby, earning admiration from fans. Many praised her for bravely normalizing breastfeeding and celebrating even the most unflattering moments of her motherhood journey. Jenna’s approach to motherhood, from the first announcement of her pregnancy to the baby’s birth and beyond makes every moment worth the hype.
