Ashley Graham is a busy mom.

On February 19, the mother of twin boys Malachi and Roman, who married Justin Ervin in April 2018, posted photos from her hectic Saturday morning on Instagram Stories. In this photo, Graham is breast pumping, while a second video shows her breastfeeding both children at the same time. She wrote on Instagram: “Happy Saturday.” Graham has previously shared breastfeeding images, but she was shamed publicly for going against the grain. “My whole career is based off of being sexy and my breasts have been the forefront of many magazine covers, so then to flip to my baby is there sucking on them, I think that people just had to switch their minds,” Graham noted on Red Table Talk with Jada Pinkett Smith. “But they are multi-purposeful. I think there’s so many new mommies out there who are agonizing over what they should and shouldn’t be doing.” While the mother is delighted to nurse her youngsters as required, she did tell The Wall Street Journal last February that she has no desire to do so forever. “I’m just like, I’m not your pacifier; I’m a boss, and I’m a businesswoman. I’ve got stuff to do,” she said of her decision to stop nursing Isaac.

This month, the body acceptance advocate took time to thank her loved ones who assisted her in bringing her twins into the world and being a great mother. She wrote on Instagram:“THESE WOMEN. I am forever grateful for these incredible women who were by my side during the experience of carrying twins and my postpartum journey. I couldn’t have imagined what it would entail, but I know it would not have been the same without them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts — from me, from Justin, from Isaac, and from the twins. We are unbelievably blessed to have you.”
