Six-Pack Mom Sarah Stage Demonstrates Workout Routine as She Nears Due Date
Sarah Stage isn't compromising her fitness regimen, even at 8-months-pregnant.
The
Los Angeles-based model, known on social media as the "Six-Pack Mom,"
is closer than ever to welcoming her second child. Sarah's shared much
of pregnancy journey with her more than 2 million Instagram followers, and much like her first pregnancy, has defended her lifestyle time and time again from body shamers and trolls. In
her latest Instagram post, Stage shares why she's continued exercising
so close to her due date despite an influx of comments urging her to
stop. "As I'm nearing #8months I've wanted to share what's been on my
mind," the mom-to-be captioned a video sequence of herself completing a series of weight exercises like planks, lunges and squats.

"Since
I've announced my second pregnancy," Stage continued, "I've had certain
‘Instagram medical experts' tell me what I should and shouldn't do.
And while I find some of the comments hilarious, I choose to only
listen to my OBGYN and of course I also listen to MY body."
Stage
added, "If something feels off, I don't do it! I always do what's best
for my growing baby and put him first! It's a proven medical fact that
continuing exercising while pregnant has many health benefits for you
and baby. Clearly, I have greatly reduced the intensity of my workouts
and stick to at home exercises from my Fitness Ebook 2-3x a week."
The
six-pack mom then addressed haters accusing Stage of prioritizing her
looks over her unborn child: "There are also some people who assume that
since I am exercising while pregnant, that I'm obsessed with how I
‘look' but in fact I'm obsessed with maintaining a healthy lifestyle
that will give my baby and myself the best possible quality of life."
She
concluded, "Alternatively, I don't judge anyone who chooses to not be
active while pregnant etc. as it's their own life... I'm just sharing my
pregnancy journey and appreciate the positive support from most of
you."

"I'm at a place in my life where happiness, peace and
joy are my priority. Especially being #6monthspregnant , there's no room
for any negativity so please take it elsewhere ✌.Baby #2 is healthy and
measuring just fine. I would think that after having James, who was
born almost 9lbs and healthy, people would be more understanding during
this pregnancy and keep their ignorant comments to themselves ... We are
all different that's what makes us special and unique!"

By
the time Stage had reached her third trimester in early August, her abs
were still completely visible and her midsection appeared toned to
perfection. She's yet to reveal how much weight she's gained this time
around, but before giving birth to her first son James Hunter in 2015, Stage had put on 20-lbs. at the 8-month mark.
She ultimately welcomed a healthy baby boy who weighed in at 8-lbs. 7-oz. and 22 inches long.
