The Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton is rumoured to take some time off from her royal duties to breastfeed the royal baby.

Kate Middleton is probably feeling the pressure of some advocates to breastfeed her new born son.

Admittedly, Kate Middleton is one of the major role models for women around the world. She quickly became an inspiration to expectant mothers when she announced her pregnancy.

Now, all eyes are on Kate as she left the hospital with her two boys, Prince William and the new Prince of Cambridge. Will Kate set a new trend for mothers worldwide by breastfeeding her son?

According to a bold opinion piece of the Telegraph, the rate of breastfeeding mothers in England is plummeting. However, Kate can turn this around with her influence in her homeland. Some breastfeeding advocates are hoping that Kate will choose to breastfeed her son and to let the public know.

Most women decide to breastfeed due to its health benefits as well as to foster the mother-child relationship. However, for celebrity moms like Kate, there are a lot of things to consider upon making this important decision. Kate has many royal duties and attends various charitable events in behalf of the royal family. Thus, she is very busy indeed. How will she be able to make time for breastfeeding?

Many celebrities have joined the clamour for breastfeeding and initiated it themselves. For example, Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr and pop rock singer Pink was caught in photos breastfeeding their children. Before Angelina Jolie had hers removed, she breastfed her twins.

What will be Kate's decision? Will Prince William approve that Kate will breastfeed the Prince of Cambridge? Will the royal family allow it?
