Chrissy Teigen Shared A Nude Photo With Her Infant
Teigen showed off her three-month-old baby in a photo she shared with over 41 million followers on her Instagram page. The picture showed her sitting nude in the bathtub holding up the “little human” and smiling. As a tribute to the newborn, she wrote a touching caption underneath the post.
It read, “A boob that somehow hangs along my side and deep purple lifetime scars, but you are too perfect for worrying about any of it !” This comes after a video she shared baking cookies with her two other kids two days ago. The clip featured her “Perfect Chocolate Chunk Cookie Mix” as the main ingredient.
The 37-year-old has shared other joyful photos with her newborn and the rest of her family in the past couple of weeks. The tribute to Etsi gathered many congratulatory comments from fans praising her for being a strong woman.
Fans Praise Chrissy Teigen For Her Strength
In response to the bathtub photo with Etsi, many fans encouraged Teigen for her strength and body positivity. Actor and director Keegan Connor Tracy wrote, “Thank you for being brave (though it shouldn’t be brave) enough to post suck real photos.”
Tracy also noted that people are more concerned about their bodies because of the increase in filtered and edited images on the internet. “I think there’s a dysmorphia that is happening because everything is so filtered and contrived.” The director then encouraged mothers to post pictures of their natural bodies like Teigen did.
She concluded, “There is beauty in real. And in knowing that we sacrifice to make these beautiful little people. Our bodies are meant to be lived in!” Another user commented on the “Life scars’ of a beautiful woman and mother. It’s proof that we are strong and brave and good! Wear them all proudly.”
She Suffered A Miscarriage
In 2020, Teigen and Legend announced their miscarriage during the former model’s pregnancy with her third child. She then shared photos of the couple in the hospital room shortly after Jack died. While some fans asked why she shared the tragic images, Teigen noted that they deserved to be remembered.
She said, “I knew I needed to know of this moment forever, the same way I needed to remember us kissing at the end of the aisle, the same way I needed to remember our tears of joy after Luna and Miles.” According to The Hollywood Reporter, Teigen recalled the incident two years after the tragedy and revealed that she had to make a “lot of difficult and heartbreaking decisions.”
She said, “Two years ago, when I was pregnant with Jack… my third child, I had to make many difficult and heartbreaking decisions.” The star was diagnosed with partial placenta abruption, which was the reason for a medically recommended “abortion to save my life.”
Chrissy Teigen’s Pregnancy With Baby Etsi
After another IVF procedure, Teigen got pregnant again with her and the “All Of You” singer’s fourth baby in August 2022. The TV personality was very emotional about the pregnancy, considering how heartbreaking the miscarriage was.
The star posted her baby bump with a little story in the caption explaining how she felt. “The last few years have been a blur of emotions, to say the least, but joy has filled our home and hearts again.”
Amid her excitement, Teigen was very nervous about the process. However, she remained “hopeful” that the pregnancy would turn out “perfect and beautiful,” which it did in the end.
