✨05/11/19✨. The day you changed my whole world ?. My everything

A post shared by Hannah Elizabeth (@hannahelizinsta) on

One person commented on the picture: “Imagine putting on your make up and doing your hair after having pushed out a baby instead of cuddling it,” while another added, “who looks like that after having a baby?”

However, now Hannah has fought back, defending herself for posting the photo.

“Yes haters I did have makeup on after giving birth. Actually I had had a curly blow, pins curls, the lot. I wasn’t gonna meet my son for the first time and best day of my life rough was I?”

“I had a C-section so birth was planned, chilled and AMAZING.”

She later added: “Because apparently u shouldn’t take time from your baby to ‘cake makeup on’ so when the nurse says to get up n go for a shower freshen up your meant to just lie in the bed sweating?”

She also wrote on her Instagram Story that she isn’t going to change who she is just because she became a mother.
