Schwarzenegger Pratt recently opened up about having an amazing partner in Pratt.

In the latest episode of her Instagram Live series, "BDA (Before, During & After) Baby," she chatted with her friend and new mom Iskra Lawrence about the difficulties moms have with body image and the idea of snapping back shortly after giving birth.

The author explained that Pratt has "always been super supportive" of her body and how a woman's body changes before and after birth.

"He'll look at our daughter and be like, 'Can you believe your body is able to feed our baby?' " she said.

"Sometimes, I think — especially as women with this pressure to bounce back after baby — you have to keep in mind that when you're breastfeeding, you need to, as my husband says, 'eat to win,' and to feed yourself so you can also properly nourish your baby. Because for a lot of people, what you eat and how you treat your body also hugely impacts your milk supply," she added.
