Having struggled with infertility for years, a mother of triplets claimed that now that she has given birth to triplets, she is learning to love her body, stretch scars and all. After experiencing infertility issues and giving birth to Charlize, Jax, and Sawyer at the age of one, Desiree Fortin, 30, who resides in San Diego with her husband Ryan, 31, said she has always been “proud” of her physique. She recently had to reconsider how she felt about her postpartum stomach, though, as two individuals mistook her for being pregnant. The photographer and stay-at-home mother reported receiving two congratulations on her “baby bump” in a row. She stated she experienced postpartum depression and anxiety after the delivery of her children.

I’m not expecting,” she declared. I have always felt fantastic and pleased of my body after giving birth to my triplets, albeit I do have a small amount of postpartum pooch left behind. What I had to go through in order to bring children into the world, as well as the sars that symbolize my tale,” she said on her blog.” She initially “brushed it off,” but after it happened twice, she began to have second thoughts about how she felt about her body. I was pushed to give my body some serious thought, Desiree added. Was it true that I was proud of the nds that remained on my stomach after carrying and giving birth to my triplets? Was I truly attractive? Do I truly grasp the idea that these Sars stand for the life cycle? Did I really appreciate how valuable my hopes were? She claimed that while her stretch marks serve as a reminder of the transformation her body underwent throughout her battle to become pregnant, they also stand for the immense joy of having kids.

The small creases, sags, and skin that rolls over her jeans, she said, “Show how great God is in impossible situations.” Because of the difficult road she underwent to conceive, she refers to her children as hope babies and calls them hope nds. My babies were and still are my “hope babies.” I feel hope when I look at my nds and all it took to become a mother, even if my body is very different from what it once was. I also saw my journey as a mother’s journey, thus I felt the phrase “hope nds” would aptly describe the scars on my body and accurately convey my tale.

On August 17, the triplets of Fortin were delivered via C-section. Some physicians had doubts that I would survive that long, so it was pretty amazing when I gave birth to them at 34 weeks and one day. Although I think it was a healthy pregnancy, we are happy to present Charlize Hope, our young daughter, and our set of identical twin boys, Sawyer Reed and Jax Ryan. As we now embrace our family of five, my heart overflows with thankfulness for these wonderful angels, who are the most treasured gift.

Since the babies were born, life has been hectic, exciting, and busy. I still find it hard to comprehend that God has blessed me with not just one, but three tiny people with whom I get to spend every day of my life. I adore seeing my infants smile and watching them develop. When I look at them, I fall deeply in love, and my heart overflows with gratitude that they are here. The best job in the world is without a doubt being their mom, but it hasn’t been an easy road. I spent countless days snoring on the floor of my bathroom due to negative pregnancy tests or unsuccessful reproductive treatments. But finally becoming a parent was worth every bitter tear. As well as positive emotions, Desiree said the sᴄars also symbolize her ‘dark days’ as a new mother when she suffered from sleep deprivation, anxiety and depression. She wrote: “I felt аѕһаmed of myself and incredibly lonely. I see that when I look at my sᴄars.”

She took a series of pictures while posing in the bathtub in response to the inaccurate pregnancy comments. The woman said, “I felt so empowered and inspired to continually embrace my body for the beauty it is and truly represents.” Since she made the topic public, many mothers, according to her, have approached her about their sars. Behind every sar and tiger stripe, she said, “is a beautiful, strong woman who gave this world life. She has a story, and that is something to be proud of.”
