Sister, Sister actress Tia Mowry just got refreshingly real about her postpartum body.
The star and her husband, Cory Hardrict welcomed their first baby girl in early May.
Taking to Instagram she candidly opened up about her body image, post-baby.
She also called out the false expectation perpetuated in society for new mothers.
The actress captioned the snap:
“This is MY #postpartum. Two weeks in. Do I still have a belly yes. I actually look like I’m 4 months pregnant and that is OKAY.”
The 39-year-old stressed the importance of setting your own goals and not feeling pressurised by others.
“I wanted to shine a light on how our society creates false expectations after a woman gives birth," she wrote, "Ladies, it’s okay that our bodies are not PERFECT after our babies are born. Give yourself time. Go at your own pace. Don’t allow people to put a time limit on YOUR body.”
She ended the sweet message by giving some love to new mums and their bodies:
“You’ve just accomplished a miracle! #Love yourself, love your new body, embrace it. [If] you want to make changes [then] that’s your desire and no one else’s. Ps, #moms freaking rock!”
The actress and her partner also have a seven-year-old son together, Cree Taylor Hardrict.
The couple recently celebrated their 10 year wedding anniversary.
They have been together for 18 years, according to the star's Instagram.
