Celine Dion Talks Motherhood

She’s used to having a lot on her plate, and now that Celine Dion has twin babies to take care of, she’s reached a new level of busyness.

The “My Heart Will Go On” songstress explained, “I didn’t have these children to not take care of them, to give myself to them 200 – 300 percent.”

“I am changing diapers and breastfeeding and that’s something where no one can take my place. It’s tiring but an intense joy.”

Celine added, “I take things day by day. That’s the secret to me. In any case, breastfeeding is more difficult if you are stressed. Sometimes I find myself in comical situations I don’t know how to get myself out of. For example, when both are feeding and one has gas while the other is burping, I don’t know which position to adopt!”

Right after giving birth, Celine had trouble adjusting to things. “Some of the first days after I came home, I was a little outside myself. I had no appetite and that bothered me. My mother remarked that she noticed I had moments of lifelessness, but reassured me that this was entirely normal.”

“One moment, tremendous happiness; the next, fatigue sets in, and I cried for no reason, and then that took care of itself. It’s for things like that after having a baby that mothers really need emotional support.”
