Hey y'all! As mothers, we are constantly inundated with messages about what our bodies should look like. We are told that unless our bodies conform to a certain standard, we are not good enough. This can be incredibly damaging to our self-esteem and lead to feelings of insecurity and self-hatred. But it doesn't have to be this way! We can choose to embrace our bodies, which have done incredible things instead. It is such a magical moment when we learn to love ourselves for who we are, flaws and all.
