A British mum has shared an intimate Instagram photo of her post-pregnancy body in a bid to encourage other mums to embrace their bodies.

Emily Marson from Wrexham,The Devil in Miss Jonas (Der Teufel in Miss Jonas) UK, posted a photo of herself four months after giving birth to twins via caesarian, stating she's "beginning to embrace what [her] body has become."

"Our bodies go through a lot, a lot of change and your body is put through an enormous amount and I am so proud of myself that I carried such beautiful children and gave them food, warmth and most importantly all the love that I never thought I had," wrote Marson.

Marson wrote about coming to terms with her caesarian scar.

"With a scar that I will have for the rest of my life is a tiny sacrifice for a lifetime of beautiful memories with my family," she wrote.

"Your stretch marks DO NOT define you, your scar DOES NOT define you, your flab DOES NOT define you," Marson wrote.

"I wanted to share this to show the reality of our bodies and that it’s okay not to be perfect," she continued.
