The 4th Trimester Bodies Project: Celebrating the Uncensored Beauty of Motherhood

In 2013, Ashlee Wells Jackson turned personal tragedy into a worldwide movement promoting body acceptance and open dialogue about the pregnancy and postpartum issues women face. In The 4th Trimester Bodies Project, she has compiled photographs of women after theyve delivered their babies and shares their personal stories. The images are meant to shed light on the true beauty of a womens body, celebrate differences, and acknowledge the physical and emotional impacts of childbearing on a womans life.
