Popular presenter Magdalena Roze wants people to know what her body really looked like after giving birth to her second child in June.

In a candid Instagram post, the new mum shared a throwback photo of her "wobbly tummy" three days post-partum, keen to relieve the pressure women feel to force their bodies to "bounce back" after pregnancy.

"I worry about all that ridiculous pressure to 'bounce back' as if it's a badge of honour,' she wrote.

"Bounce back to what? For we can never be who we were yesterday, let alone post pregnancy. And that’s a good thing."

"No I'm not pregnant with our third, this is a few days after Charlie's birth, my huge belly that had nourished life for 40 weeks, slowly deflating, job done," she wrote.

"It's so magnificent it makes me want to cry. I wasn’t sure if I should share this as it's so personal but I've been a little introspective this week (pesky lurgy/lost voice)."

"I wasn't embarrassed or self conscious (which surprised me) & showed her some pics of me pregnant & the baby, & we talked about birth. She then touched my wobbly belly and said 'it’s amazing.' I really hope she feels that way about her own one day. Because it really is the most magical transformation."
