From Pumping Pics to Mesh Underwear: Every Time Amy Schumer Proved She Was the Most Relatable Mom on Instagram

When She Got a Set Visit from Gene

Okay so maybe most moms can’t relate to the “set visit” part, but the “million kisses” snuck during a quick work break? For sure.

When She Admitted She Was “Afraid” to Return to Work

In a moment most working moms have, Schumer said leaving her little one for work terrified her. 

“Five months today and like all moms I love him so much it hurts,” Schumer wrote on Instagram. “I’m feeling strong and good and like I’m still a human being with interests and ambitions and goals I’m excited to reach. It’s felt good to be back at work.”

“I was so worried about it and was afraid to go back after he was 3 months old,” she added. “A couple days I’ve cried from missing him. But it’s mostly good to be back and the breaks energize me to be a better mom and appreciate our time even more.”

When She Joked About Post-Pregnancy Weight Loss

The star shared this snap with her sister, writing, “Well I’ve lost 10 pounds and 100 dollars to my sister playing poker.” Schumer concluded the post writing the hashtags “#norush #givememymoneybackkim.”

Fellow new mom Jessica Simpson — who recently revealed a 100-lb. post-baby weight loss — commented cheekily, “You’re hot. Size only matters when it comes to men.”

When She Shared the Moment That She Found Out She Was Expecting (in Her Friend’s Bathroom) 

Schumer knows that the moment you find out you’re pregnant isn’t always straight out of a movie.

The comedienne shared a photo of herself, pants around her ankles, on the toilet and looking bewildered and captioned it, “#tbt the day I found out I was pregnant in [Jessica Seinfeld‘s] bathroom.” 

When She Complained About Being Pregnant Forever 

Days before giving birth, Schumer said she felt like she had been pregnant forever.

“Oh yeah does it feel to everyone like I’ve been pregnant for a long time?” she asked. “It must be getting annoying to you all that I’m still pregnant Well imagine how I feel mother f——!!!!!!”

When She Shared What She Learned During Pregnancy

In a tender post-birth post, Schumer said that she had learned a lot while pregnant, one thing being that: “Women are the s—. Men are cool and whatever but women are f—— warriors and capable of anything.”

She also opened up about her struggle with hyperemesis: “I did Pilates with strong women and went for walks. I threw up violently and felt sick mostly every day of my pregnancy. Hyperemesis is real and it’s awful. But f—, what they say is true. The second you give birth it’s gone.”

She also thanked her friends for pushing her through pregnancy saying, “All my friends. Friends I’ve had for 30 years or people who encouraged me to ‘keep going’ or telling me ‘it will be worth it.’ Thank you. Every woman I encountered is so willing to help and advise you and I felt all their strength. And you were right. Thank you ladies from my family. Chris, Gene and of course Tatiana [Schumer’s dog].”

Ending her post in typical Schumer fashion, she added the hashtags, “t-tsleaking #wearingadiaper”

When She Called Out Mom Shamers for Getting Mad That She Was Performing Stand-Up Again

When She Shut Down Someone Who Asked How She Would ‘Cope’ If Gene Was Diagnosed With Autism Spectrum Disorder

One of Schumer’s followers commented on this adorable photo, “I’d like to see a documentary of you discovering your mate is diagnosed with autism and how you cope with the possibility that your child will be on the spectrum.” 

Schumer responded, “How I cope? I don’t see being on the spectrum as a negative thing. My husband is my favorite person I’ve ever met. He’s kind, hilarious, interesting and talented and I admire him. Am I supposed to hope my son isn’t like that? I will pay attention and try to provide him with the tools he needs to overcome whatever challenges come up like all parents. I’d be disappointed if he liked The Big Bang Theory and NASCAR, not if he has ASD.”

When She Was Feeling Two Ways at Once

In a sweaty selfie with her husband, Chris, Schumer wrote, “3 months after a C playing doubles volleyball for 90 minutes!”

She added, “And I want to recommend being a parent if you can. It’s nuts.”
