There’s no denying it – giving birth is tough.
But sometimes we forget about one of the toughest aspects of all – the aftermath.
New mum Autumn Benjamin has shared the stark reality of the aftermath of giving birth, sharing a photo to Facebook breastfeeding her newborn daughter while wearing “big mesh panties”.
“I was in new territory,” Autumn wrote.
“Learning to breastfeed this little human being that I just brought into the world. Wearing these big mesh panties, still sporting a pregnant belly… no one told me your belly doesn’t go down immediately. No one told me I’d be bleeding out.”
Autumn, who gave birth to her daughter Layla earlier this year, also wrote about suffering a bad rip due to her “quick delivery”.
