The Truth About Postpartum Bodies
Social media often shows a flawless version of postpartum life, but the reality is much different.

Postpartum recovery is unique for every woman and can take months or even years. By embracing these changes, we support a more honest and compassionate view of motherhood. It’s time to celebrate the strength and beauty of all postpartum bodies, not just those that fit unrealistic Instagram standards.
