Model Ashley Graham is showing her fans what her "new tummy" looks like three months after giving birth to her twins, Malachi and Roman. The mother of three — who is all about promoting body positivity — paid tribute to her stomach for all it's done to help her welcome her babies into the world.
Ashley shared the update on her Instagram on Sunday
Wearing nothing more than a pair of black panties, Ashley posed for two bathroom selfies and posted them online. She also shared a close-up photo of her tummy and stretch marks. "Hi, new tummy," she captioned the snapshot. "We've been through a lot. Thank you."
Ashley then used a hashtag to remind people that she was three months out from delivering her babies.
Ashley first revealed her exciting pregnancy news last fall
Fans were stunned in September when she and husband Justin Ervin shared that they were expecting by posting a super-sweet video montage. In it, the 34-year-old documented her pregnancy from the moment that she and Justin saw the positive pregnancy test to when they learned that they were having twin boys.
This isn't the first time Ashley has shown off her stomach
The proud mama frequently lets it all hang out, which is part of what has earned her the title of queen of body positivity. We absolutely love how Ashley accepts her body and celebrates it for all it's capable of doing, especially when it comes to common pregnancy and postpartum struggles — like stretch marks and weight gain.
We're not the only ones who love Ashley's approach to self-acceptance
Ashley's comments section was full of people singing her praises and celebrating her new look right alongside her. "Always so refreshing to see a woman's body raw, unfiltered, and in all its glory," wrote one follower.
Another commented about just how hard Ashley's body had worked over the years. "Amazing the lives you've created and carried and pushed into this world," they wrote, referencing Ashley and Justin's twins as well as their firstborn son, Isaac.
Ashley seems to be recovering well from pregnancy
Carrying multiple babies is notoriously hard, physically and emotionally, but Ashley seems to have handled everything like a champ. According to her Instagram, she's getting back to working out and resuming some of her previous activities.
We're sure she's got her hands full these days, but we enjoy seeing these updates from her when she has the time to share. Hopefully she'll keep them coming!
