Postpartum bodies are a tricky subject. On one hand, a new mom just grew and delivered a literal human being and things don't just return to how they were before pregnancy in the snap of a finger. On the other hand, society still (unfortunately) puts pressure on new moms to "bounce back" fairly quickly after welcoming a baby.
Fans recently declared that Jessa Duggar looks "amazing" after welcoming her most recent child. As a refresher, Jessa, 31, and her husband, Ben Seewald, 29, share five children: Spurgeon, 8, Henry, 7, Ivy, 5, Fern, 3, and George, nearly 8 months. And now, her social media followers are begging for the Counting On star to share her "secret."

Recently, Jessa Duggar shared a video of herself trying on several outfits.
Jessa took to Instagram August 7 with a video of herself trying on several fashionable outfits. The busy mom noted the clothing was from Bates Sisters Boutique, a business venture from Duggar family friends the Bateses. In the caption, Jessa declared, "@batessistersboutique always has the cutest clothing!"
The former 'Counting On' star modeled a variety of looks.
In the clip, Jessa recorded herself showing off the outfits in a mirror selfie-esque video. She donned a pair of ripped jeans with a striped tank — a look that would have been scandalous mere years earlier because of the Duggar family's formerly strict ideas of "modesty." Other 'fits included a cute pair of overalls, many colorful dresses with puffy sleeves, and an all-black look.
In the comments, fans couldn't help but compliment Jessa's postpartum body.
The focus of Jessa's post was to promote the Bates family's clothing brand. Many Instagram users, however, praised the mom of five for her slim figure.
One person wrote, "You look so good Jessa, especially for having 5 kids!!!!"
Josie (Bates) Balka declared, "You look amazing!"
Someone else shared, "I’m amazed at how your body snaps back after kids. Gorgeous!"

Other fans were curious to learn the "secret" behind Jessa's trim look. One Instagram user commented, "How is your stomach so flat after 5 kids. Mine would never go back down. Now I've had 10 and it feels hopeless."
Another follower wrote, "You had 5 babies and look like that!!! this isn’t fair man!! lol! Just kidding but not really please help us out!! What is your secret? Also love the outfits!!"
Yet another Instagram user (who lost count of her kiddos) echoed, "You look great Jess after 4 kids. What is your secret. Love all the outfits ."
Jessa recently dished on 'getting fit' after welcoming five kids.
Those looking to get the lowdown on Jessa's exercise regimen needn't look too far. On July 1, she posted a video to her YouTube channel titled "Getting Fit After 5 Kids."
"I'm gonna be real with y'all: I've never been a fitness person my entire life," Jessa admitted toward the beginning of the video. Later, she elaborated on how the fitness app Trainwell helped her prioritize exercise as a busy mom. This, combined with a nutritious diet, has helped her fitness level and wellness postpartum.
