Even though many moms love sharing pics of themselves and their kids on Instagram, the platform hasn't always been mom-friendly.
In the past, moms have had their breastfeeding photos removed because Instagram said the pictures violated its policies. Now, one influencer is speaking out after her entire account was shut down over a baby bump picture.
Thanks to their large followings, these individuals known as "influencers" are able to monetize their accounts and score ad partnerships or other business deals.
Sally Mustang, is speaking out, after she said Instagram shut down her account for violating its nudity policy.
Like many couples, they took to social media to share the news with their followers.
One of the photos was of Sally in the bath with her bump sticking out of the water. She says the photo didn't violate Instagram's policy as her breasts were covered by her hands.
Sally was devastated by the ban which couldn't have come at a worst time for her.
“I’m really scared, I’m five months pregnant and my whole livelihood has disappeared,” she said in a video.
“I’m so, so disappointed in whoever’s running the show there because I just don’t understand what kind of message that sends out; that Instagram doesn't accept pregnant bodies?" she said.
She thanked her followers for speaking out and helping her get her account back online.
"I am so blown away - over the moon and back by the power of love and magic," she said in a post.
