There's no better gift than to have life growing inside of you! Our bodies are powerful and capable of much more than we can even understand sometimes. Pregnancy is such a beautiful yet vulnerable time for women and everyone should realize by now that we are all different and our differences should be respected as we are literally growing another human inside of us ! I speak for every expectant mama that we just want a healthy and happy baby, and we must surround ourselves with positivity!! I hope that each woman embraces their uniqueness and celebrates such an exciting moment in their life! Thank you @shannonlaurine for capturing this moment. #thirdtrimester #8monthspregnant

Some people could not believe her subtle baby bump, even going so far as to say she isn’t actually pregnant, or that something must be wrong.

Others, however, are sick of the mummy-shaming:

‘I will never understand why people think it's ok to be so critical of a pregnant woman's body. I was the size of a house and was constantly told I was too big, now people are shaming this babe for being "too small" give a pregnant lady a break folks, it's tough making babies! Looking gorgeous@sarahstage 😘’
