New Mom Under Fire for Post-Baby Body Selfie
Yahoo! News ^ | 12/2/13 | Beth Greenfield

"This is not a selfie. This is an act of war," writes one Australian blogger in response to the image — just one of many blogs, news outlets, body-image experts and social-media commenters around the world to weigh in on the matter in the past few days, putting the photo at the center of a major online body-image controversy. "This whole situation has become ludicrous. The competition for women to give birth and then immediately remove any trace from their their bodies that they ever carried a child is OBSCENE. There is no other word for it." Another blogger calls the photo of Eriksen, who is married to pro soccer player Lars-Kristian Eriksen, "wildly provocative.".

She’s married to a pro athlete. She needs to look good or it won’t be long for her. She probably doesn’t have a job and has round-the-clock care for her baby. She’s got no excuse to not get back into shape. Good for her. And, good for the husband.

“Selfies” are really “Selfishies”.

I reserve judgement on that. Being a non-female, I don’t instantly assume that they’re fake because they’re large.

It’s not the fact that they are large, but that she has low bodyfat. It’s quite uncommon for a woman with a low enough bodyfat to see muscle definition to also be large breasted.

She's actually a bit softer than her normal look.

Frankly, I don’t think they’re hanging correctly either, but that could be a bra thing. Your observation is an excellent one.

If the implants disrupt the flow, there is a good chance the next thing we’ll be hearing about is her removal of them. Unless she’s selfish enough to force the baby onto formula.

Had she murdered the child in her womb to avoid looking pregnant, the world would be fine with it.

Wait a second, didn't this happen already a few years back? Feigned outrage AFTER birth?

Is the baby okay? if yeah, they can bugger off. What do they really want? A selfie after an abortion?? Jerks

Being a female, I am assuming they are fake. (for what it’s worth!)

Surprisingly, yes. I figured she could have marshaled more resources when she had it done, being married to a big-shot soccer player.
