This Mom’s Powerful Message About Embracing Her Post-Pregnancy Body Is Honestly Refreshing

Society puts tremendous pressure on men and women to achieve the ‘perfect’ figure. For some, squeezing a 7 pound human out of your hoo-ha doesn’t even count as an exemption.

Here’s a mom who chose to steer clear of the Transformation Tuesday hashtag, and instead love her post-pregnancy body.

Last week, Olivia posted a photo on Facebook and Instagram revealing her post-pregnancy body, along with a few words.

Olivia writes, “I’m not the same person I was before I had babies, so why would I want my body to reflect something and someone I no longer am?”

“Some days I wish it [my belly] didn’t jiggle so much and was a bit ‘firmer’ but then I just remember the awesome shit it’s done and cut myself some slack and go eat a cheeseburger, because we moms earned it.”

While there’s no shame in trying to get back to your pre-baby weight, post-pregnant figures should be celebrated more often.
