The singer proudly stated that it's \"rad\" that she carried a child for nine months and \"loves\" her post-baby curves, saying they serve as a reminder that \"I did something really amazing and wonderful with my life.\"

She also encouraged her fellow mothers to accept their bodies.

\"It's like, 'I did something that half the population can't do.' So I think that's pretty f------ rad,\" she said. \"That's kind of how I came to that epiphany and was like, 'I'm gonna share this.'\"

Morris and husband Ryan Hurd's son turned 1 on March 23.

The couple performed their new duet, \"Chasing After You,\" at Sunday's ACM Awards show, where Morris took home two trophies: female artist of the year and song of the year, for her multi-week No. 1 hit, \"The Bones.\"
