This meteorologist went viral for explaining pregnancy weight gain to viewers
When viewers tried to shame pregnant meteorologist Ashlee Baracy about her weight gain, the Ohio television professional took a moment to school everyone who sent in a mean email. In a social media post responding to viewers who expressed “concerns” about her weight and heart health , Baracy wrote: “My weight gain is normal, my blood pressure is perfect.” Baracy’s social media statement went viral, and she’s glad that people are understanding that the kinds of comments she gets about her looks are not kind, constructive or welcome. She’s taking a stand against body shaming everyone, especially pregnant women. “Now that I’m going to be a mom, I want my child to be confident in their skin,” she told Today . “Kids shouldn’t look at someone on TV and hear their parents say, ‘She looks fat,’ because what might they think when they look in the mirror?”Baby’s family goes viral while raising money for her medication—the most expensive in the world
