Chrissy Teigen is our queen for so many reasons—her amazing cooking skills, her hilarious sense of humor, and her surprisingly relatable social media accounts. Check out her best points about motherhood, from immediately post-birth to how things change when you’re at home breastfeeding.
On Losing That Baby Weight
Ok time to stop eating pasta twice a day and simultaneously wondering why these last few won't come off
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) July 25, 2016
Is it bad that we think this while trying to lose a few, too?
On Breastfeeding
Fell asleep with my breast pump on and I think I'm in a different dimension now

Trippy, right? We love how open Chrissy is about breastfeeding and all the down-and-dirty aspects of motherhood.
On Bodily Functions
Baby girl is really ruining my decade long lie of girls not being poop and fart
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) June 9, 2016
It’s about time. No more pretending!
On Children’s Books
can't read the giving tree without crying, despite having read it 100 times. what is the moral here?
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) June 9, 2016
UGH, us too! We love the tradition of passing down your own favorite childhood memories and books to your kiddos.
On Double Standards
to everyone asking, john is healing perfectly

Queen of sass, we salute you.
On Teaching Moments
i just realized that when luna's teacher asks how many legs a dog has, she will really not be sure
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) April 20, 2016
The Teigen-Legend/Stephens family has three dogs—one of which is an adorable three-legged black French bulldog named Penny.
On Sleep
My biggest parenting conundrum: why it is so hard to put someone who is already sleepy to sleep
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) August 5, 2016
No matter what school of sleep-training you are of, you gotta agree—getting babies (and kids in general) to sleep is a HOT MESS. One day, they’ll miss being able to sleep all the time!
On Her Womanly Figure
enjoying my slightly bigger hip action. did some calculations and only 46 more babies until i acquire my ideal shapeliness
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) May 29, 2016
Chrissy, girl, you’ve got a rockin’ bod. No matter what size you are, pre- or post-baby.
On New Hobbies
365 days ago, this. now i am watching an episode of Unwrapped about clementines with my boob out…life is crazy pic.twitter.com/eCGYr6pfBO

Weird how one year you can be in a full-on ballgown and the next you could be doing…this.
On Fun Surprises
no one told me i would be coming home in diapers too
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) April 20, 2016
Ahh, the harsh realities of childbirth. Moms everywhere praised Chrissy for talking about post-birth in such a candid manner.
On Feeling Your Look…Or Not
When you’re so in love with your baby but aren’t quite feeling selfies yet, you crop! Chrissy is all of us here.
On Baby Dimples
her body dimples please me so https://t.co/pKZLJJdunD
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) July 29, 2016
There’s nothing like a chunky baby! We can’t get enough of baby Luna’s rolls, dimples, and general cuteness.
On the Paparazzi
A paparazzo just dropped off some prints for us at our hotel. very weird but also very kind. Thank u, anon photog! pic.twitter.com/m9nhkoFDim
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) July 29, 2016
Sometimes, the paparazzi isn’t SO bad. Totally relatable, right?
On Boobs
We actually laughed out loud at this one. Protect the goodies (and Luna’s food)!
On Her Husband
Chrissy has said time and time again how much John does for their little family—from waking up with her at every hour of the night to reading Goodnight Moon in that gorgeous voice of his. Dad goal alert!
