Amy Schumer has absolutely no time for women who are ‘mom-shaming’ her for returning to work two weeks after the birth of her son Gene Fischer. The comedian returned to the stage at New York City's Comedy Cellar for a stand-up performance - but she received some nasty comments from women criticising her choice.
Thankfully, the Trainwreck star didn't let the negative comments get to her - and silenced the haters with a photo of herself breast pumping.
She captioned the Instagram post, which was taken by Amy's sister-in-law Molly Fischer, ’Sending out love to the moms shaming me for doing standup last night! #tinystairs #schumerpumprules pic by @mofischhh.'
In a very honest post, earlier this month Amy also opened up about the realities of her pregnancy, and thanked her loved ones and medical staff for their help.
‘Women are the shit. Men are cool and whatever but women are fucking warriors and capable of anything,’ she wrote. ‘I was lucky enough to get to have a doula. Her name @domino_kirke@carriagehousebirth what do doulas do? I don’t totally know. But what she did was make me and Chris feel totally secure and supported throughout my pregnancy and the birth process. I really recommend getting one if you can.
‘Doctor Brill and all the nurses and pediatricians at Lenox Hill and all the other hospitals i spent time in this year, thank you for everything. I did Pilates with strong women and went for walks. I threw up violently and felt sick mostly every day of my pregnancy. Hyperemesis is real and it’s awful. But fuck, what they say is true. The second you give birth it’s gone.'
