Hateful trolls say my post-baby tummy is the ‘reason they’re never having kids’ – yes I have loose skin but it’s so mean
A YOUNG mother has proudly shown off her post-baby body, but has been met with horrendous comments from mean trolls.
Chloe, a 22-year-old stay-at-home mother who has two children, gave her followers a close-up look at the loose skin on her belly, just 26 weeks after giving birth to her youngest daughter.
But the content creator, who has amassed an impressive 316,900 followers and 36.3million likes online, was left with nasty messages from keyboard warriors, one of which said she is the reason they would “never have kids”.
Eager to clap back to the jaw-dropping remark and set the record straight, Chloe, who is mother to three-year-old Aura and seven-month-old Elladee, and had her two kids in the space of just two and a half years, wrote back to the brutal message.
Posting on social media, the influencer wore a crop top and leggings and showed off the stretch marks on her tummy in response to a rude comment that read “ok now this is another reason why I’m never having kids”.
In response to the troll, Chloe confirmed: “My body should never put you off having kids – this is natural, this is absolutely normal.”
Chloe then expressed: “Every woman’s body is different after pregnancy, throughout pregnancy, and before pregnancy, so you saying this is the reason you don’t want kids because of the look of my body is absolutely wild to me.
“Everyone is allowed their opinion, I’m not saying that, you’re allowed to say whatever you want, you’re allowed to be scared of pregnancy, you’re allowed to be scared of what your body might look like after pregnancy.”
The mother admitted that she was initially “scared” of the “changes” to her body after having a baby and “never” thought her figure would look how it does currently after her second baby.
She claimed that while she “bounced back so fast” after giving birth to her first child, she was “a lot larger” with her second.
Chloe then added: “If you bounce back very quickly after all your kids, you are very lucky.”
Now, Chloe is on a mission to encourage kindness online and “normalise normal bodies”.
As a result, the blonde asked: “Can we stop commenting hateful things on my postpartum body? As I will see them and words do hurt, so please be mindful and kind.”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ourfamilydiariess, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 72,500 views in just 24 hours.
How do women's figures change after giving birth?
TO SAY the body changes during pregnancy and childbirth is an understatement.
Throughout the nine months it takes for the body to bring a baby into the world, it goes through some huge physical changes.
Considering how different the body looks during pregnancy, it’s not surprising that there are some lasting changes.
And it some ways, it never does, Doctor Rachel Ward, a GP at Woodlands Medical Centre, Derby, said.
1. Wider ribcage and hips
“During pregnancy in order to accommodate a growing baby and prepare for giving birth, our body produces a hormone called relaxin,” she explained.
Relaxin works by increasing the flexibility and movement in our joints and ligaments.
“Many women find that after pregnancy the shape of their pelvis and ribcage remains different,” Dr Rachel said.
It is common to need a different bra size due to a change in chest circumference, the expert said.
“This is a reminder of the changes your body made to accommodate your baby and is nothing to be worried about,” she added.
2. Change in skin colour
During pregnancy, most women experience skin changes as it stretches to accommodate your bump and enlarging breasts.
“It is not uncommon to develop stretch marks.
“Though they will often fade over time and become a shiny pale colour, depending on your skin tone they will not go away completely,” Dr Rachel said.
“Some people do not like the way stretch marks look but they are an incredibly common change that we see in many people,” she added.
3. A change in breast shape
Breasts increase in size during pregnancy as the breast tissue prepares to produce milk.
And shortly after birth they will start to produce milk and become swollen, Dr Ward explained.
“If you choose to breast feed or not, it is likely that the shape, size and way your breasts look and feel will be different after pregnancy compared to before,” she added.
“This is not a problem but it is important that we do learn what the new normal is for our breasts so we can stay breast aware and pick up and changes that could be cancer.”
Social media users were eager to support Chloe and numerous women rushed to the comments to praise her “beautiful” figure after having two children.
One person said: “God forbid a woman who’s had children looks like they’ve had children. I think you’re gorgeous.”

Another added: “You look amazing! Your body grew your babies! It did everything it was supposed to do.”
A third commented: “You look fantastic.”
Meanwhile, someone else shared: “You’re absolutely beautiful.”
Not only this, but another mother chimed in: “My stomach is the same after my daughter, this is lovely to see. Women’s bodies are amazing.”
