She penned: “I was asked on IG this morning if I’m excited to get back in shape post pregnancy. I nearly skipped over the question so I didn’t have to answer it and undoubtedly have my answer be misconstrued and misjudged.
“Because the answer is yes. I am extremely excited to rehab my body postnatally; my core, my pelvic floor, my glutes, everything that has had to shift, make way and change for my little potato will need to be rehabbed and nursed back to health. I am excited to PATIENTLY watch my physique change again, too.
“That doesn’t mean I don’t LOVE my pregnant body…clearly I do.”
The 35-year-old went on to share how passionate she is about her body.
She continued: “I work in the body. I have done for a decade. I’ve been passionate about it for longer than that. It was that passion that saw me change my career, lifestyle, body and mental health.

“I love a performance goal. I love a physique goal. I love what I do.
“Today, this love is CONSTANTLY and CONSISTENTLY deemed as hatred for your female form. Deemed as insecurity born of the patriarchy and or the media. It is SO frowned upon for women to have body goals.
“Why? If your body goal is to stay the same, to become healthier, to become fitter, to become stronger, or to grow and develop a physique, why is one any more valid than the other?
“Do you change your hairstyle? Wear makeup? Buy a new dress before a holiday? Try a new shade of nail varnish? Get your eyelashes tinted? All of these actions likely help you to FEEL better in your own skin, and they are all accepted amongst women. So why isn’t a body goal?”

Chloe then gave her fans advice on how to treat others when accepting their body changes.
She explained: “Try not to project your own experiences onto others, not everybody’s ‘why’ is the same.
“I’ve also had this photo in my camera roll since early June, and I love it. But I’ve been too scared to post it in case people think it’s overly confident, or in case they make something of mine that I think is beautiful, ugly.

“Funny that, isn’t it? The fear of sharing a positive relationship with your body is matched on either side of present day love and acceptance, or later date goals to evolve, because so many will project onto it their negative opinions.
“So screw it, celebrate your body, even if it doesn’t fit the trend right now. ‘Self love’ should be an option for EVERYONE, after all,” she added.
Fans were loving, Chloe’s post with one follower writing: “Gorgeous pic and bloody great post.”
While another echoed: “Absolutely stunning.”
