Occasional Digest - a story for you

PRACTICING body positivity can sometimes be difficult, especially if you’re learning to love your postpartum figure.

One mom has shared her self-love attitude as she posed in a bikini after giving birth.

In her video, Jayde (@life.withjayde) embraced her body and encouraged her followers to do the same.

The TikToker describes herself as “just a regular mom sharing the journey of motherhood,”

Jayde explained that she is appreciating what her body has done for her family.

“Point of view: You’re in your mom bod era,” the mother-of-one wrote.

“Determined to love and appreciate your body for everything it’s done for you,” Jayde continued.

She explained that she won’t let her physical insecurities hold her back.

“Not willing to let your insecurities hold you back from living your life,” she said.

To prove her point, Jayde posed in a black two-piece swimsuit as she stood on her garden deck.

Despite wearing high-waisted bikini bottoms, she pulled down the band to show off her postpartum stomach.

Jayde grabbed her lower belly and moved it to show her followers the reality of being a new mom.

Her stretch marks were also clearly visible as she moved closer to the camera to give viewers a better look.

She also turned to the side to show off her stomach from different angles.

TikTok users took to the comments section to share their thoughts on Jayde’s body positivity.

“Mom bods are beautiful no matter what, you look amazing mama!” wrote one viewer.

“Gorgeous! It’s been ten months since my son was born and I’m still trying to at least like my mom bod,” said another follower.

“I’m trying to accept this. I’m trying to accept the body that created my daughter but it’s so hard, you’re beautiful!” commented a third person.
