Chrissy Teigen Chooses Newborn Esti over Grammys Though She Got Mom-Shamed Before

• Chrissy Teigen skipped the Grammys to cuddle her newborn daughter.

• Teigen got mom-shamed.

• Teigen's life postpartum: Living a "vertical" and "horizontal" life with her three kids and helping her children overcome jealousy toward their new sister.

While countless celebrities were looking sensational and enjoying a night out at the Grammys, Chrissy Teigen stayed in. Her partner, John Legend, missed her by his side, but Teigen decided it would be best to stay home, rest, and spend quality time with her newborn daughter, Esti Maxine Stephens.

The model had prepared to join her musician husband on the red carpet. She had had a dress fitted, ready to strut alongside John, but decided against it after having the fitting.

In an Instagram post she shared on the day of the Grammys, Chrissy said she realized she had nothing to prove. She could barely get up, so going to the award ceremony suddenly seemed silly. She laughed, "happy grammy day!! had a dress fitting, looked around and realized ….what the hell am I trying to prove here. I cannot get up lol."

Chrissy has been open about her experiences as an expecting mother.

Her post included a photo of her on a couch with the newborn Esti resting peacefully in her arms. To celebrate the Grammys, Chrissy also posted an older snapshot of her and John at the Grammys. She captioned it, "loved this whole look so much. body lookin a liiiiittle different today but worth it."

While Chrissy couldn't make it to the Grammys, she cheered her husband on as he waited to hear who would win after getting three nominations. Accompanying the post was an image of Chrissy and John on the red carpet. She looked radiant in a flowing pink dress, while he wore a sleek black suit.

Over the years, Chrissy has gotten used to the critics and negative commenters online.

Chrissy has been open about her experiences as an expecting mother. She often updated her followers on her progress and the challenges she was facing, and she spoke openly about life after giving birth to her youngest daughter. Meanwhile, her husband showed his love and support in every post she made.

After posting the image of herself with little Esti in her arms, Chrissy's husband commented on the post. John commented that she looked absolutely gorgeous sitting on the couch with their youngest. Followers responded similarly, voicing their support.

Many followers praised Chrissy for prioritizing her new baby. One follower commented, "You're right where you need to be," while another said, "The right choice!" A third person wrote that the award was already in her arms. However, over the course of her pregnancy, some fans have criticized and commented on her parenting.

The Times Chrissy Teigen Got Mom-Shamed

Over the years, Chrissy has gotten used to the critics and negative commenters online. When she had her first child, Luna Stephens, many made remarks about how the mom held her daughter. One nitpicking user commented, "Do not hold your baby like a handbag!"

Chrissy and John were elated to welcome little Esti to their brood.

Likewise, people took to Instagram after Chrissy shared an image of her having a bath with her daughter and her middle son, Miles Theodore Stephens. May people found fault with the fact that she was bathing with her kids.

The snapshot showed the three of them enjoying a bubble bath, but many users insisted that Chrissy shouldn't be bathing with her kids. After a while, people started commenting in the fact that Chrissy shared photos of them bathing together:

"To much is to much . You should keep private life for your kids . You always like to show your body."

Another user commented, "Not appropriate with her son in the tub," while another said, "Some things should just not be shared." That said, Chrissy doesn't let the comments get to her. She often stands her ground, and she has support from many of her other fans. One fan said, "How is this inappropriate!"

Chrissy's Postpartum Journey: Her 'Vertical' and 'Horizontal' Life, and Helping Her Kids Not Be Jealous of Esti

Chrissy and John were elated to welcome little Esti to their brood. Their other two kids, however, weren't as thrilled initially. The famous couple opened up about Chrissy's latest pregnancy, saying Luna and Miles were slightly jealous before their mom gave birth to their little sister. John mentioned:

"We weren't sure how they would take it. I felt like they were a little jealous when mommy was pregnant."

If the two were jealous, those feelings evaporated as soon as they set eyes on their little sister. When Chrissy brought baby Esti home, Miles and Luna couldn't wait to meet her. The parents revealed that they tried to assure the two older siblings that the new baby wouldn't mean they get left alone, and it paid off:

"But as soon as Esti arrived, they're just exploding with love and joy, and they're so caring and loving toward her. They want to hold her, they want to kiss her and it’s really exciting."

Chrissy also opened up about life after her third child. She revealed that she spent most of her time lying down and resting and mentioned in an Instagram post's caption, "life lately (horizontal)." Luckily, she recovered over time and has gone back to living vertically instead.
