Reacting to the post, a fan wrote, "Thank you for normalizing bodies." Another commented, "Our changing bodies remind us of the life we created. It reminds us of all we have."
And, one wrote, "Thank you for being brave (though it shouldn’t be brave) enough to post suck real photos. I think there’s dysmorphia that is happening because everything is so filtered and contrived. This is just what people look like when we take down the veil. There is beauty in real. And in knowing that we sacrifice to make these beautiful little people. Our bodies are meant to be lived in!"
She was lauded by many for promoting body positivity online.
Teigen gave birth to her third child in January. Her eldest daughter Luna Simone just turned 7 on Friday. Her second-born is a son named Miles Theodore, who is currently 4. Esti, on the other hand, is just three months old.
