Too small, then too big – poor mother did not know where to go from the bilious comments.
Fitness trainer and successful blogger Hannah Polites has over a million Instagram followers. It would seem that she should have long ago got used to comments of all kinds. Moreover, her body is considered with particular pickiness in view of the profession. But no, during pregnancy, Hannah admitted that she was ashamed. It’s a shame to be photographed, it’s a shame to upload pictures: she was just ashamed of her figure.
No, not at all because Hannah was ashamed of the pounds she gained. They were not at all noticeable on the chiseled figure of the girl. But because her subscribers asked the most unceremonious questions they could think of.
During her first pregnancy, Hannah’s tummy was small. This is, in general, a frequent occurrence: when a girl bears her first child, her interesting position becomes noticeable only in the fifth month, not earlier.
“Are you sure everything is all right? There must be something wrong with your child, your belly is too small, ”wrote Hannah’s followers. And some even shamed her at all: they say, she is on a strict diet, for the sake of the figure of a child she is starving.
Hannah wondered: do people not understand that they are saying cruel things? Then I somehow got used to it. Gave birth, got in shape. Then she got pregnant again. And her subscribers again began scribbling comments: this time it seemed to them that Hannah’s belly was too big.
“Are you sure he’s alone there? This is definitely not twins? Or maybe you have polyhydramnios, it’s not normal! ” – and other remarks in the style of “making a diagnosis from a photograph.”
This time, fortunately, Hannu was less moved by the tactlessness of her million-strong audience. Immunity is a real deal.
“I just ignored such comments. I knew that I was absolutely healthy, that my body would become as big as my son needed. Of course, after the second birth, it will be more difficult for me to return to my previous form. But I will do it for the sake of my ideal children, ”said Hannah.
Interview
Have you been told tactless things during pregnancy?
Yes, there were always some stupid comments.
Some were convinced that they knew more about my pregnancy than I did.
I was predicted by the shape of the abdomen what gender the child would be. Not guessing.
They did not speak, but they often tried to touch – terribly infuriates.
No, in my environment there are only educated people.
