Root ViewController View is not taking TabBar and NavBar into account

I have a viewcontroller that is embedded in both a navigation and tabbar viewcontroller. I had assumed that the self.view would geometrically be the bounds starting at the bottom of the navbar and the top of the tab bar. This is what I have read online. That by viewWillAppear the view is resized to subtract the tab and nav bar from the height, essentially. However, this is not happening for me. When I log out the frame of my view it is the same... {{0, 0}, {375, 667}}. In viewDidLoad, viewDidLayoutSubview, willAppear, DidAppear it is that same frame. Therefore, if I put an imageView as a subview of self.view with a frame (0,0,screenWidth, 200). That imageView appears occluded by the nav bar. To my reading, this isn't the standard behavior.

If you want that your UIViewController starts below the navigation bar put this on viewDidLoad:

self.edgesForExtendedLayout = UIRectEdgeNone;
