Israeli influencer and fitness trainer Liki Rosenberg, 41, recently gave birth to her third son. A month after her delivery, she posted a photo on Instagram showing herself holding her newborn while wearing only a nursing bra and postpartum underwear. The image, intended to normalize the realities of childbirth and promote body positivity, quickly drew a wave of criticism from other women, including those who had given birth.
Rosenberg captioned the photo, "Everyone has their own diaper." She expressed pride in wearing the postpartum underwear, stating, "After childbirth, I proudly wear these panties, I wear them all day, with any outfit." She added that she believes women are most stylish after giving birth and aims to help them feel "the sexiest women in the world" by sharing the "truth" about this period, even its less attractive aspects.
However, the post elicited mixed reactions. While some offered support, many criticized Rosenberg, with one commenter stating, "Stop posting everything, it's not normal." Others accused her of seeking attention at any cost and suggested that certain aspects of postpartum recovery should remain private. Some questioned the necessity of such public displays, asking if her sole aim was to be talked about and criticizing the trend among influencers.
Commenters also urged Rosenberg to be more modest, questioning her definition of sexuality and suggesting that such displays were inappropriate for public consumption. The controversy follows a similar incident days earlier when another influencer, Dana Zarom, posted a blurred, nude photo of her husband, which also generated significant backlash.
