“For the mother who still struggles with your body, who goes through terrible anxiety before your period but still has to show up, who feels rejected [because] your child chooses the other parent, who tries to do everything to make their child happy, but never feels like it is enough, who still feels guilty when they have to work,” the 38-year-old actress wrote on Sunday, September 17 via Instagram Stories. “I see you, you are not alone❤️.”
On the next slide, Tisdale shared a black photo with the caption “You’re doing great.”
The former High school musical star became a mother in March 2021, when she welcomed daughter Jupiter with husband Christopher Frans. Tisdale took to Instagram to share the news, posting a black and white photo of her and French, 41, holding their newborn’s hand.

This isn’t the first time Tisdale has kept it real since welcoming Jupiter. In September 2021, she tearfully shared her struggles with becoming a new mother on her Instagram Story.
“I wanted to share this because I think it’s important to show the parts that we don’t share as often,” she wrote. “I cried in the bath because the journey of motherhood can be difficult. As someone who struggles with mental health, there are days when I don’t feel good because I don’t recognize my body. I’m still healing and will occasionally sneeze and pee at the same time (TMI, I know guys, but it’s the truth), which makes me realize how much my body has changed.
The Disney Channel alum has also opened up exclusively to We weekly about how the couple’s newest addition has affected their relationship.
“We were married for about eight years and never had a fight until we had a child,” Tisdale said. “I think it’s just the pressure and just everything [with] my hormonal journey through postpartum.”
After meeting in December 2012, Tisdale and French married in September 2014. Six years later, she revealed she was pregnant with the couple’s first child.
“[People] told me what to expect [as a mom] and you read books about, like, the baby, but no one tells you about your relationship, some of — what that journey is going to look like,” Tisdale told Us. “And so I think that was absolutely shocking for both of us. But you know, we’re going to therapy. We do what we have to do.”
