Her posts are refreshingly raw and many mums have commended Haddas for her guts and honesty.
“[M]y body is stretched, sagging and uneven but I’m still attractive,” Haddas captioned one of the photos. “You don’t stop looking good in a bikini once you have kids, you just look like a different kind of good. When your body no longer looks like the Instagram bikini model and you have a mom bod, be proud!”

Saggy parts? They are to be celebrated! Take it from Haddas: “Stretch marks and imbalanced breasts and all the rest of that body changing goodness.”
Sharing this with the world, she hopes her fellow mamas will embrace their postpartum bodies and be proud of their beauty, whatever shape they’re in!
