This week, we noticed Knix popping up all over #this_is_postpartum, a social media movement aimed to encourage conversation surrounding postpartum journeys. The catalyst for this hashtag was first-time mom Meg Boggs, who recruited 25 women to share their own stories about postpartum body image and mental health. Many of these are moms in our own Knix Community, who are using the hashtag to share their stories and “hope wounds”— inspiring others to participate and converse alongside them.
Thank you to all of these very special women who have shared their personal postpartum stories, all while continuing to empower and inspire us at Knix.

"But a body like mine IS a postpartum body. And I deserve to celebrate it. And I will continue to do so”
Sarah Nicole Landry, @thebirdspapaya
“In my vulnerable state of sharing, it opened me up to the beauty and normalization of the most amazing things, and the most beautiful bodies”
Desiree Fortin, @theperfectmom wearing our Leakproof undies
“And as expected my body changed quite drastically. But I also changed. I see more beauty now than I ever have before in my own flesh and skin"
Anupa King, @denupzter
"You. Are. Enough. Mama!”
Meg said it best herself, “All. Postpartum. Bodies. Deserve. To. Be. Celebrated. No. Matter. How. They. Look.” Check out these stories and more on Instagram at #this_is_postpartum.
