Four months postpartum, one mother got a scale as a gift. The speakers reject the "bounce-back" pressure on new mothers to lose weight fast, arguing instead for self-compassion and celebrating how your body has changed.

We need to talk about this. I'm 4 months postpartum.
My parents visited me this weekend. This is what my mom brought me as a gift.
Wait for it, not done. A scale. Yep, you saw that right.
And an entire folder of these.
I hope you can see that correctly.
Charting my progress. I'm calling to cancel bounce-back culture, cancel unrealistic expectations, and start celebrating The joy of ever-evolving womanhood. So throw your scales in the trash and give yourself a pash.
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mwah!
