Society tends to want to look at a sanitized, ‘perfect’ version of reality on social media. However, life is anything but. And if you want the truth, the real truth, you’ve got to be prepared to see all the various shades of it without shying away.
American author, motivational speaker, and body positivity advocate January Harshe created the Take Back Postpartum page as a way to show the reality of giving birth and life after pregnancy. The raw photos and candid stories are a true testament to the strength of women, their unwavering love for their children, and the relationship that they have with their bodies after giving birth. Truth is beautiful. And Take Back Postpartum doesn’t shy away from this. Not from the scars. Nor from the postpartum bellies.
Take a look at the powerful stories about pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum life, as shared by the Take Back Postpartum project on Instagram. Meanwhile, when you’re done reading the article, we invite you to take a look at Bored Panda’s earlier post about the project right over here.
