Last year, Erin McGregor had a baby.
Back in August of 2016, the sister of MMA fighter Conor McGregor gave birth to Harry Anthony McGregor Kavanagh.
After her son’s arrival, she – like many mums – was left with a lot of loose skin around her stomach.
Or, as Erin likes to call it, “mummy tummy.”
Last night, the 34-year-old admitted that she had considered never showing her stomach off again because of how self-conscious she felt.
In an Instagram post, Erin said that she felt that her skin “needed help” and that there was only so much dieting and exercising that could help her tummy.
“This is something I thought long and hard about showing the world,” she wrote.
“I felt it was time to show that not all woman bounce back after a baby [sic].”
Erin chose to undergo a skin tightening treatment to remove the stretch marks and loose skin she was left with after the birth of her son.
Similar to brother Conor, the McGregor sister is also a serious athlete and fitness model.
She said she wanted to share the picture to help “a mammy who hates her tummy and thinks she can never show it off again.”
Although many of us are perfectly a-ok with showing off our mummy tummies just as they are, Erin’s post proves that many women can struggle with their confidence after pregnancy.

She finished her post by saying that she also engaged in a fitness regime to get herself “bikini ready.”
Fair play, Erin.
