“Uncensored” Postpartum Photo Shows The Messy, Hilarious Reality Of Being A Mom

Mom Amada Bacon from North Carolina, US, loves her life as a mom and is *usually* happy to post idyllic snaps like this of her lovely family…

…But after giving birth to her daughter recently, Amanda decided to give the Internet a glimpse of what postpartum really looks like, sharing the snap below.

The 100% real photo shows a semi-naked and exhausted Amanda in her oh-so-stylish incontinence panties, while her husband gives a jokey thumbs up.

“I’m sharing this picture because it’s real. This is motherhood; it’s raw, stunning, messy, and freaking hilarious rolled into one,” wrote Amanda online.

And she’s carried on posting hilariously honest pictures, to the delight of mom’s everywhere.

With the original snap now liked and shared hundreds of thousands of times, it seems that Amanda has struck a chord with tired (but happy!) parents around the world.

In a world where everything we see is digitally altered to be “perfect”, it’s time we appreciated life, and especially motherhood, for what it is: totally chaotic and totally awesome.
