She continued: “I'm so glad I didn't hang up the heels completely during my pregnancy... I'm not really 'pole dancing' that much (definitely no tricks or inversions) but I have been taking flexy pregnancy pics nearly every month in my pole gear as it is such a significant time in my life and what a better way to document it... in the splits or on the pole! “I'm not only doing this to share my journey with you, but I do it for me... To feel sexy again! Like a hot mumma! ...and how much fun it's been! If anyone knows me knows that I don't take life too seriously and always love a good laugh also (the belly rub video was so fun to shoot!) “In saying that, I take my pregnancy VERY seriously and would never put on a pair of 7 or 8" heels if I wasn't completely comfortable and confident in them. Strapping on these heels and strutting to the pole, completely confident and aware, with my heels as an extension of my legs I feel completely comfortable!”
Jill clarified that she stopped doing the more challenging tricks early on in her pregnancy. Despite this, her blog post has received a mixed reaction with some praising her and others criticising. She revealed: “I am not going to write a speech justifying what I do, as a pole dancer and now as a soon-to-be-mother. But I will say this... As women we all want to feel sexy, this is how I feel sexy... “This is how I express myself and I'm sure my son is gonna think his mum rocks when we bring out these pics on his 21st birthday! My husband also thinks I'm pretty cool!” Jill and her husband welcomed their baby son, John Rocco, this weekend. The proud mum shared a snap of the new arrival on her Instagram account.
