Model and new mum Chrissy Teigen has previously been criticised for choosing the sex of her baby during IVF and daring to leave the house after giving birth to daughter Luna, and now Internet trolls are judging the way she was photographed carrying her little girl.

She even set her Twitter account to private a few weeks back after a particularly bad barrage of hate, announcing that “her body and mind cannot handle it anymore.”

But it seems even that couldn’t shield her from all comments, as this latest barrage of comments shows.

Not one to bite her tongue on social media, Chrissy clapped back with the kind of fierceness you’d expect from somebody who’d just been publicly accused of putting their child at risk.

“At six-months-old Luna is probably showing more of an interest in the world around her, and probably prefers to be perched on her mum’s hip rather than cradled like a newborn. Luna’s shoulder and neck muscles would be strong enough to hold her head up at this age, so Chrissy doesn’t look to be anything wrong by holding Luna in this position,” Erin Mayo, editor of Mother & Baby magazine confirmed for The Weekly.

“We should be supporting mums… rather than mum shaming.”
