With husband John Legend and another child on the way, Teigen also had a piece of black body tape applied to her tummy, which she claimed was for her acid reflux.
"Thank you @doctorberlin for being my main man for so many years and for the acid reflux tape (it works!!?)
She also thanked them for watching Barbarian with her.
Miles Theodore, 4, and Luna Simone, 6, are the couple's already-born children.
Pregnancy is often presented through carefully curated images of glowing skin, growing bellies and joyful anticipation. Teigen's post offered something more personal: an unfiltered look at the physical discomfort that can accompany the experience.
Acid reflux is common during pregnancy, partly because hormonal changes and the growing baby can encourage stomach acid to travel back into the oesophagus. Although Teigen shared her personal experience with the tape, its apparent effectiveness for her should not be taken as proof that it is an established treatment for everyone.
Her approach also reflects a familiar feature of her public persona: a willingness to discuss bodily experiences that other people might prefer to keep private.
Chrissy Teigen makes pregnancy visible beyond the picture-perfect image.
The baby bump attracts attention, but the acid reflux conversation changes the story. It reminds audiences that pregnancy is not simply an aesthetic transformation; it is also a physical experience involving discomfort, adaptation and the search for relief.
By pairing an intimate photograph with a practical health update, Teigen turns a personal moment into a conversation her audience can recognise.
The larger insight is that celebrity vulnerability can make everyday experiences more visible—but personal anecdotes still need to be distinguished from medical evidence.
When celebrities share the less glamorous realities of their lives, does it change how we see them, or does it simply make our own experiences feel less isolating?
