I used to adore all the maternity shoots anytime I see on social media . I said to myself the day I become pregnant I would do whatever I wanted because I was the only one who could experience the changes in my body , the pains , the crazy hormones phew . I gained 53 pounds and all worth it . To all pregnant women out there , do whatever makes you feel good . It’s all about you . There is no culture on being pregnant guys it’s an individual thing . Don’t feel pressurized …..if you can run then run , if you can’t go to gym then rest …… it is what you feel you’re not lazy . #EveryPregnancyIsDifferentButSpecial .

This moment right here 😢. I was super emotional here . I kept asking my team is this really my maternity shoot ??? Throughout my career no one ever helped to place my body a certain way . I listened to directions and deliver the job . But this particular shot the whole team had to help 😂 getting me down , helped placing my legs , my back felt like it was breaking lol . I said to @oye_diran please take a picture first let me see my tummy first . I was super emotional. He asked is everything ok . I said let’s shoot 💪🏽I realized things are different.
