She doesn't have a Victoria's Secret sixpack like the Angels have 6 weeks post-pregnancy, nor does she have firm, perky breast. Still, her post-pregnancy body looks beautiful and her mentality is even better:

“During my pregnancy, I wasn’t exercising a lot. I was in maternity-wear at nine weeks. I was just eating whatever I wanted; I wasn’t being careful about that at all. I was huge. Maybe in hindsight… No, I don’t give a s***. It was great!”

Lara continues: “It was about getting healthy. So that’s the eating aspect of things – which I’m not always good at, I go through stages – and then there’s the going to the gym aspect,” she admits. “It’s a whole change in lifestyle. I feel a lot more balanced. My energy is much steadier. I feel stronger and more confident.”

Huh…

She didn't look preggers a couple of months ago on BAZAAR cover. And she definitely didn't look 30.

Coo.

She gave birth to her son in May 2013, so she's 1.5 yr pp.

Pretty good body but those lines on her forehead do show her age.

I feel like they're really unflattering, intentionally.

I love to see unretouched natural photos because they show the reality of life. She's really beautiful, has a nice body whether she was recently pregnant or not. I just love the moles and skin wrinkles, as we don't usually get to see them on famous people who insist everything must be retouched. She has wonderful breasts and nipples, one of her best features.  Not all breasts are perky, hers are quite natural.

She looks gorgeous full stop - regardless of whether she is post/pre/mid pregnancy.

I don't think they're intentionally unflattering, they're just not specifically posed/lit/edited to look a particular way. I like that - pointy-toe, face to light, stomach in, back arched stuff gets a bit tedious after a while.

Plus that's just not how us women behave naturally smile I love this editorial because it sends out a powerful message and shows what women really look like and that top models have wrinkles and striae too.
