Ina Raymundo and Maggie Wilson call their stretch marks ‘Battle Scars’

For many women, stretch marks is something frustrating and some may even feel embarassed to even talk about it. To some it’s a delicate topic and sometimes it even affects their confidence.

Stretch marks happen when your body grows faster than your skin can keep up with. This causes the elastic fibers just under the surface of the skin to break, resulting in stretch marks.

But to Mommy Iya Raymundo and Mommy Maggie Wilson-Consunji, they call their stretch marks – ‘battle scars’.

On their respective Instagram posts, Ina and Maggie showed their photos with the following captions:

For Ina:

‘I’m a mom of 5 and I have (severe) stretch marks on my belly. I used to hate them but I’ve realized that all I need is a good…..tummy tuck!?? #battlescars #nofilter #momof5’

For Maggie:

‘Done with tennis! Now, to eat up a high protein storm! Excuse the wrinkled skin on top of my belly button, I’m a mom and that part will never be the same again! ??#BattleScars #mom #Fit #Fitness #WorkOut’.

So to all the ladies out there, do not be ashamed of your stretch marks and there is nothing to be ashamed of. Just like Ina and Maggie, be confident. In other words – Love your lines.
