Pregnancy

24th Aug 2017

This mum’s hilarious photo series shows the truth about pregnancy

What a woman.

These are incredible.

Maya Vorderstrasse is self-confessed sleep deprived mum of two. She’s also a blogger who runs an unreal Instagram account.

During her first pregnancy, Maya posted a string of gorgeous photos updating her progress.

However, she has since said that for her second pregnancy, she wanted to make things a little more… authentic.

That’s why, this time around, Maya shared a brutally honest photo series about her experience including everything from being hungry every second of the day to forcing her husband to “try being me for an hour.”

It’s all pretty funny, and the photos look incredible too.

And then finally, one day, baby Hazel arrived.

But thankfully, the candid photos did not stop.

But despite all the stress, cravings, and breastfeeding pain, Maya still manages to look absolutely flawless just two weeks after giving birth.

Fair play to her.
