“The biggest challenge is being away from family,” Song said of working while raising a child. “I know everyone feels that way. There were so many long days where I’d get home and my son would already be asleep.”

Brenda revealed that she was on pressure on herself to continue breastfeeding her son while she was working. The star often asked her mother to taking care of her baby while filiming for Hulu Series.

“I pumped throughout production,” Brenda Song told. “Me and Kat Dennings would sit there and go over lines. She was the best, hiding me and holding up my sweater while I pumped.”

Brenda added that:

“missing those hours with my newborn son, it pains me, but at the end of the day, Mama’s got to put food on the table. You’ve got to make those sacrifices. Hopefully, he’ll understand.”

Song and Culkin shares household duties and they’re currently focused on communication to keep a good enviroment and help navigate parenthood.

“Instead of having set duties, we just feel each other out. I’ll be putting my son down and my partner is like, ‘Let me feed the animals and get dinner ready,'” Song told..
