A pregnant model has been forced to release a statement assuring the world that she and her baby are doing fine, after Instagram snaps of her toned baby bump sent the Internet into overdrive.
30-year-old Sarah Stage, who is eight and-a-half months along, has been documenting her pregnancy since the beginning, sharing her diet and fitness tips with an ever-growing number of followers.
Lately however, fans have accused her of overdoing it. Why? Because nobody can quite believe that her (perfectly healthy) bump is so small.
One user remarked: “She needs to feed that baby instead of worrying how to keep her figure.”

Stage credits a healthy diet of spinach, quinoa and chicken as well as regular gym sessions for her taut pregnancy figure but admits to indulging in a cheeseburger every now and then.
Addressing the nasty comments for News.com.au, the LA-based Elite Model said: “Most are very positive and I try to ignore any negative comments. My doctor says the baby is healthy and that’s all that matters to us.”
The model later posted this image in response to the furore…
