Matapos manganak, madalas na ang focus ng mga nanay ay ang kanilang baby. Hindi naiiba dito ang aktres at dating beauty queen na si Lara Quigaman.
Noong nakaraang buwan, nanganak si Lara sa kanilang pangalawang anak ng aktor na si Marco Alcaraz. Dahil sa bagong baby. maraming mga kamag-anak at kaibigan na bumisita kay Baby Tobias. Ngunit kahit na mga well-wishers ang mga bisita, hindi napigilan ng ilan sa kanila na magkomento sa katawan ni Lara.
“Bakit ang laki pa rin ng tiyan mo?”
Ito ang nasabi ng ilan sa kanila, ayon sa aktres.

“I know they don’t mean anything bad, but people can be so insensitive, and all those photos of ‘celebrities and models’ that seems to look so perfect right after giving birth doesn’t help either. I mean, hello I just gave birth, i was cut open and a human being came out of me! Can you just congratulate me?”
Ito ang post ng celebrity sa kaniyang Instagram account. Sinamahan niya ito ng recent photo nila ni Baby Tobias. Kitang-kita sa litrato na medyo malaki pa rin ang puson niya.
“It was really difficult to post this photo, to show what the world sees as ‘flaws’, but well this is the real deal,” saad niya. “My body housed 2 beautiful baby boys and it took 9 months each time to grow them in my belly and I have accepted the fact (trying to by God’s grace) that it will take some time for my body to go back to the way it was (if it does go back) And if it doesn’t, that’s okay too.”
Alam daw ni Lara na may mga ibang bagong nanay na bumabalik agad sa dating mga katawan nito matapos manganak.
“Don’t get me wrong I’m happy for those moms who have flat tummies just a few days after giving birth, but we’re all different, our bodies are all different and that’s okay and I want other mamas out there who are like me, who look at themselves in the mirror and feel sad because of what they see. I want you to know that you are not alone…”
Nagbigay siya ng mensahe sa kapwa niya ina: “So to all the mama’s out there who are exhausted, who’s not had a proper shower, whose breasts are super sore, (I’m crying typing this—kaya natin to mamas) those who can’t recognize their own bodies because of the stretchmarks and the chloasma or the dark patches all over their bodies, to those who still look pregnant after a month or even months after giving birth—cheers to us! We are are all beautiful and unbelievably strong and God has given us such a wonderful gift that’s worth all these hardships and body changes… So cheer up Mama You really are amazing!”
Post-pregnancy body
Hindi madaling magbuntis. Alam lahat ng mga nanay ito. Ngunit halos lahat ata ng mga ina, once makita na ang kanilang pinakamamahal na baby, iba na ang mga priorities—paano magpadede, paano alagaan ang bata, at kung anu-ano pa.
Kaya agree kami kay Lara. Sa mga bagong mommies, you are beautiful and your body is beautiful dahil you birthed a tiny person in this world. You’re one tough mama!
