Mom Handles Being Body-Shamed 11 Days After Giving Birth With Inspiring Words of Wisdom

Just 11 days after giving birth to her baby boy, Buddy, Giovanna Fletcher — a vlogger, blogger, author, and actress — was approached by a stranger who pointed to her stomach and remarked, "Oh look, Mummy's still got her tummy." Rather than get angry in the moment — as she was so shocked to begin with that she actually laughed — she took to Instagram with a selfie a few days later to air out her frustrations and inspire other moms with her words.

Yes, I still have a bump. But that bump kept my little baby boy safe for a whole nine months. That bump has filled my world with even more love and light than I knew possible. That bump is a miracle worker. My bump will slowly go over time, but I'll never stop being thankful to it and my body for everything it's given me. #spreadlove

Very wise words, Mama — don't let the haters get you down!
