During a Wednesday appearance on Today, new mom Chrissy Teigen got real about celebrity post-baby bodies.

“Anyone in the public eye, we have all the help we could ever need to be able to shed everything,” the Lip Sync Battle host, 30, said. “So I think people get this jaded sensation that everybody’s losing it so quickly, but we just happen to be the ones who are out there.”

She added: “We have nutritionists, we have dietitians, we have trainers, we have our own schedules, we have nannies. We have people who make it possible for us to get back into shape. But nobody should feel like that’s normal, or like that’s realistic.”

The Sports Illustrated model – who welcomed daughter Luna on April 14 with husband John Legend – also got real about the baby blues and postpartum depression.

“I think a lot of the mood stuff that happens afterwards isn’t really talked about, whether it’s postpartum depression or really just, for me, some days, I wouldn’t know how to cope with work and juggle things and still have time for a husband life,” she said.

She added: “And that was really tough for me, and I think just the mere act of losing those endorphins, I think I was slightly cursed by having such a great pregnancy and being so happy and having so much energy, that just the decline of all those endorphins, and all the prenatals and everything I was on and how healthy I was, naturally made my mood change. There were periods where you get super dark.”

Not to mention, Teigen has been the target of many online ‘mommy-shamers.’

“I can see things coming a mile away,” Teigen shared. “I know that when I post something, if she’s in a car seat, I’ve got to be ready for the million people telling me she’s in the car seat wrong, even though she’s in there correctly.”

She added: “At this point, I know what they’re going to say before they say it. If I’m holding her while I’m cooking, or if I’m holding her within 10 feet of a stove top, I’ve kind of just come to expect it.”

And it sounds like Luna is already wrapped around daddy’s finger.

“Whatever this father-daughter relationship is, it starts so quickly because I thought they grew into being Daddy’s girls,” Teigen gushed. “No, it was the second she came out.”
