What a great momma and a gorgeous baby. I love this !

You go girl! You're being a great mom! Show your baby that perfect doesn't have a set in stone face or value. It's what you do to your best that makes you perfect just as you are!

This is so incredibly powerful. Meg you are a beautiful women inside and out, thank you for being a part of the change this society needs,.xo

How beautiful you and your baby are! And your photographs are amazing and empowering! I am not a momma, but if I am going to be, I will think that it's okay not to be everything perfect...! P.S.: I loved your last quote written on the blackboard!

Really quite inspiring. Great post.

Thank you.

you are still the most perfect mom ever

This is beautiful! Heartwarming!!!

Beautiful post with a powerful message. Thank you for sharing

This was sweet, but the pic of the baby balanced on a cushion in mid air scares me, I really hope the baby was photoshopped on there as it looks a pretty dangerous thing to do.

Thank you for this! I'm a mother to two teenage boys and a soon to be 1 year old baby girl. I've been struggling to lose the pregnancy weight, and my body confidence has dropped so much that it's taken a toll on my relationship with my boyfriend. I need to just learn to love myself

Thank you, thank you, thank you! My babies are 10 1/2 months apart so I didn't even have time to lose the weight from the first one before i started gaining weight with my second pregnancy. I see so many moms that lose the baby weight like it's nothing and it makes me feel awful. Your post truly lifted my spirits. Sometimes i forget that you can be big and still be beautiful.

I can see her beauty

Question to mums, did you actually experience fat shaming while being pregnant(or just after)? Most people I would think would expect women to get fat while being pregnant(I don't know if that's the reality women experience). Obviously men will stop checking you out but judging women on their weight seems a little out there, and I never in mylife heard someone say that "that pregnant women is fat she must be a bad mum".

The post-partum body is the perfect baby and toddler seat! If you don't have another baby and eat healthily, it'll go back to normal when your little one doesn't need it any more.

Yeah no back rolls and a giant flabby gut are not beautiful. I get you want to empower yourself but using your body for that is not the way to go

I get the body positive movement but I'm not onboard. It's not healthy.

This is sad and honestly things like this strike me as mental illness. The absolute need to constantly reassure yourself, to feel like you’re part of a group, the agonizing over how to look in photos and trying to find significance in common skin changes like stretch marks, the constant bragging / commenting about how you look beautiful and how good of a mom you are. I get it that larger people or less attractive people get so much flack for how they look, but at the same time, I think these behaviors just feed into it and encourage the toxicity and make a new kind of toxic mom culture. This is a bad thing to do.

Ummmhmmm getting healthy is a lifestyle change, and it doesn't seem, to me, as though a healthy lifestyle was being lived prior to this pregnancy. It's just my opinion that actually this all seems very staged and very attention seeking. Just my opin. ~shrug~
