Isabella Ladera had just become a mother when the comments about her body began.
Instead of hiding or deleting the messages, she read them all and decided to respond on her own social media with a phrase that sums up her strength: “Now they make fun of me, later they’ll ask me for tips”. She did not apologize for how she looks or promise a quick transformation to appease anyone. She simply put into words what many women feel but do not always dare to say out loud after giving birth.
Her message was met with support from other mothers who had gone through the same thing: the body changes, and that does not make it a subject of ridicule. Isabella said it without drama, with the confidence of someone who had already decided not to give any more space to other people’s criticism.
