Most moms know that pregnancy is a far cry from the perfectly styled maternity photos that you see on Instagram. And no one knows this better than Jessica Simpson .
She shared the good, the bad, and the ugly with her fans when it came to her third pregnancy. Now, a few months after giving birth, she’s shared a hilarious update on her super swollen feet.
In case you missed it, earlier this year, Jessica Simpson was pregnant with her third baby.
She kept fans updated during the whole process, from her gorgeous baby shower to this hilarious bump pic captioned “Jess-tation”.
This wasn’t the easiest pregnancy for Jessica.
She was hospitalized a few times because of bronchitis.
She also experienced swollen feet, which while common during pregnancy, were so uncomfortable that Jess took to Instagram and Twitter to ask for help.
