The popular American plus-size model Ashley Graham who gave birth to twin boys Malachi and Roman’ in January is now making headlines again. This time for sharing her breastfeeding journey – sharing photos of herself feeding her twins simultaneously.
Graham, 34, posted the photo on Instagram on Friday in which she is leaning over on the bed with her tank top pulled over as her children feed on each breast respectively.
In the post description, she made a joke about her tan lines,
“double fisting (peep the whacky tan lines)”
In another photo that Graham uploaded to her Instagram stories, said,
“My normal position for when I tandem feed the boys,” she wrote. “This took me a solid few weeks of trial/error and lots of tears to latch consistently. My doula, who is also a lactation consultant, was so kind and gentle with me in helping all three of us figure out how to do this together.”
Back in February, Graham shared a similar snap of herself on Instagram – holding her two boys and describing how they inspire her to do hard things in life.
“Malachi & Roman – my boys have been the greatest teachers and biggest reminders that I can do hard things. this has not been easy, but it’s so worth it. still can’t believe I have 3 children – can’t wait to share my birth & postpartum journey with you all soon”
Ashley took to Instagram after one whole month – speaking of the reason why she was off Instagram for long,
“been off the gram. here are two big reasons why”
Pretty lately, Graham shared a carousel of three photos depicting her 3-month postpartum belly.
“Hi, new tummy. We’ve been through a lot. Thank you. #3monthspostpartum”
The post signifies Graham’s body positivity for which she has been a strong advocate, especially since her first pregnancy in 2019 when she gave birth to her son Isaac. The supermodel has been very vocal and honest about her motherhood journey. She kept her fans updated on social media during both of her pregnancies. Ashley is now the mother of three which she shares with her husband Justin Ervin.
Back in December, Graham shared a picture showing her belly – mentioning that her husband Ervin compared her stretch marks to the tree of life.
In a November 2021 interview, when she was about seven months pregnant with the twins, Graham in a statement to POPSUGAR, said,
“Because our bodies are always changing, it’s always going to be this tug and pull of where you are with your body.” She added, “There is this constant conversation that I’m having with myself, like: ‘Your body is a vessel. Your body is strong. Your body is meant to do this.’ And the affirmations never go away.”
Ashley’s updates finely resonate with Monther’s Day 2022 already, and more are expected.
