I might be a mum now but I’m still on a mission to find THE BEST curve friendly fits to share with you. @baiia_label does not disappoint. 😍✨ Would you wear swimwear like this?

Just a reminder that cellulite is NORMAL and most of what you see online is edited…even plus-size models are often heavily edited. Don’t be fooled! 😎

Apparently the internet thinks I should hate my body because I’m not skinny. Unfortunately for the trolls, I spent 10 years learning to love it instead. I have nothing to hide and nothing to prove. I’m just a mum surviving motherhood and this chaotic life. If this offends people - I’m not sorry and there’s nothing anyone can ever say to me that will make me not love myself. 10+ years fighting for positive body image - for myself and others and committing to daily mirror affirmations ’I LOVE MYSELF’ and ‘I AM ENOUGH’ really drummed it in to my brainwashed brain hole. We all grew up with pretty extreme views of bodies and I, for one refuse to hate myself because I’m not skinny. 🩷🩷🩷 My body made a baby, carried me through hundreds of photo shoots, a c-section surgery, breastfeeding, sicknesses and many many other things. I will not be mean to my body. It is amazing and so is yours. 🥰

It’s been 1.5 years since I’ve been back at the gym. My water’s broke super early (26 weeks) when I was pregnant with Freddy. I had to stop all work, exercise and be on hospital bedrest to give my body the best chance to keep my baby inside as long as possible.

I then broke my big toe at 30 weeks pregnant falling over Franklin (my cat). We were unfortunately forced to move house due to a huge unexpected rental increase on our old place. 🥴 Let’s just say - it was a very challenging time…😂 🏥

10 weeks later, hobbling around on a very sore broken toe - Fred and I defied ALL odds (most people give birth a few days/weeks after their waters break and are at risk of getting a potentially deadly infection!). The docs scheduled my c-section at 34 weeks and mid surgery they discovered why my waters broke early…. I have HALF A UTERUS🫠😅 (unicornuate uterus 🦄) which I had no idea about!

Even though I was so lucky in many ways, the complicated surgery significantly prolonged my postpartum recovery leaving me with excessive deep tissue scarring and chronic back pain for almost 14 months. 😵‍💫

So, now I’m back to the gym feeling all the feels because this has always been my happy place where I’ve felt the most happy. I’ve missed my strong body and this feeling so much.

Share your story in the comments and let’s normalise talking about our pregnancy/postpartum journeys - the good, the bad and the ugly.
We are all bloody warriors. 💪🏼 🩷
