Chrissy Teigen keeps it real on Instagram with picture of postpartum underwear

Moms everywhere are relating so hard to the latest Instagram post from supermodel Chrissy Teigen.

Teigen just gave birth to her second child with John Legend last week.

The healthy baby boy, Miles Theodore Stevens, is gorgeous, but Teigen also shared a hilarious picture to her Instagram page — and it has moms everywhere cracking up.

As you can see, Teigen (although pretty as ever) is clearly exhausted and trying to keep it together, but more importantly, she is also modeling some very sexy (ha!) mesh underwear.

All new moms will recognize those mesh panties that they give out after delivery at the hospital.

They might look like granny panties on steroids, but many women say that they are priceless when it comes to healing and recovery after having a baby.

This is why so many of Teigen’s fans are giving her major thumbs-up for being willing to show every side of motherhood by sharing this non-glamorous, non-airbrushed shot.

Of course, this kind of candid expression is nothing new for the supermodel, author and business mogul. When it comes to being a mom, no one keeps it more real than Chrissy Teigen. Unlike other celebrity mamas who make it seem easy and effortless, Teigen is never afraid to put it all out there.

Whether she is talking about her pregnancy cravings, her postpartum depression, her changing body or struggles with her breast pumps, you can always rely on Teigen to keep it real . . . and really funny, to boot.

Teigen shared a photo of her and John Legend’s new son Sunday on social media.

“Hello, world! This is Miles Theodore Stephens – We are drowning in his little peeps and nuzzles,” Teigen wrote in the caption of a picture showing the baby sleeping. “Our household feels overwhelmed with love. Thank you for all your well wishes!”

Teigen first announced the baby’s birth on May 17, tweeting: “Somebody’s herrrrrrre!” with the baby bottle emoji.

Legend retweeted the post.

She and Legend have been expecting their second child, as she announced her pregnancy in November. She previously posted on Instagram that they were expecting a boy.

Thanks for the honesty, mama. Hope you get some much-needed rest soon!
