Naomi Osaka gets candid about the reality of post-birth body changes after welcoming daughter Shai

Naomi Osaka discussed the physical changes she faced after giving birth to her daughter, Shai, last year. Ending her 2024 season early due to injuries, Osaka withdrew from the Hong Kong Tennis Open, Kinoshita Group Japan Open, Toray Pan Pacific Open, and the Billie Jean King Cup.

Taking to Instagram, Osaka candidly talked about feeling self-conscious in her form-fitting tennis attire and struggling with comparisons to other mothers who seemingly regained their pre-pregnancy figures. Despite dedicating time to workouts, the Japanese tennis star was discouraged by her slow progress.

Osaka wrote,

"Honestly I don’t really know what to caption this post. I wanted to say “body changes throughout the year” but it actually means a lot more to me than that. There were moments this year where I felt really ashamed of my body, (for example when I had to wear form fitting tennis clothes lol)."

"I was also constantly struggling with this overwhelming urge to "snapback", seeing other mom’s seemingly shrink immediately after having their baby was an expectation I began to put on myself. That self comparison always hurt because I felt as an athlete I should be losing weight quicker than most, I was in the gym everyday so that thought didn’t feel too unrealistic."

Naomi Osaka shared that she is now learning to appreciate and embrace her body, feeling “grateful and thankful” for its resilience and strength.
