Ashley Jamesさんのインスタグラム写真 - (Ashley JamesInstagram)「Pregnancy and childbirth has given me a whole new appreciation for my body, and I look everyday at wonder at all the little changes. 🥰 I've been documenting my body with total fascination. The first two images are taken 2 hours after giving birth in the hospital, picture 3 is yesterday, and picture 4 & 5 are taken a few days before birth. The videos are all a day apart. I feel like we're taught to fear pregnancy, or how our bodies will look post-birth, but I feel like it's been the most liberating experience. And also makes me so sad for how we are taught to hate our bodies... I look back at my body pre-pregnancy and realise any hang ups I ever had with my body had NOTHING to do with my body. I feel like there's all this talk of 'snapping back' - I've been asked countless times whether I'm going to be snapping back, or whether I feel pressure to... I wish it wasn't even a question we had to be asked. And I've seen women being shamed for their body's ability to naturally shake off their weight. The truth is we're all so different, and right now I'm just fascinated at how my body is changing daily. I'm in awe of what it grew, how it grew, what it went through, and how it's changing now. I love that my belly is a little wobbly as it's the perfect place for baby's little body to rest on for post feeding naps. He loves it. I also love that my body is being used for what nature intended - I'm not sure if this makes sense or not, but having had my boobs be sexualises ever since I was a teen, it's just so nice to see a baby feeding and sleeping on them. Bliss. 😊💘 Anyway, I'm not sure if this makes sense, but I just wanted to share some thoughts around my body, and our bodies in general. We are amazing, never let any unrealistic standard or expectation make you feel otherwise. 🥰 PS the underwear is the @bravadodesigns nursing bra, and the pants are disposable @always_uk_ireland ones that I've been living in since birth. I've been putting witch hazel in the crotch and putting them in the freezer. Game changer!」1月14日 20時51分
