Binky Felstead posts crying selfie as she struggles with 'mum guilt' and sleepless nights

Binky Felstead is dealing with intense 'mum guilt' for her older two children as she battles with sleepless nights with her newborn son.

Made In Chelsea star Binky, 32, gave birth to her second son with husband Max Darnton last month.

The reality TV star took to Instagram to post a teary-eyed selfie as explained that she was 'exhausted' and is 'still bleeding' after giving birth over two weeks ago.

Alongside the snap, Binky wrote: "Week 3 is the hardest' someone said to me today on my walk, not that I can remember the other two week 3s.

"I'm exhausted, feeling like I'm getting sick and still bleeding. Wilder was up every hour or so last night and today refusing to be put down for long.

"He's hungry ALL the time and I'm starting to feel guilty I'm not being my best self for the other two."

The new mum went on: "I'm definitely over compensating by trying to do everything still with them and making sure they can't tell the difference, but I feel like today it's starting to bite me in the a**e.

"I'm going to listen to my body and try to remember to be kind to myself. He's only been in the world for two days over two weeks."

It comes after Binky recently revealed the unique name she has chosen for her third child, as she and Max Binky chose the name Wilder for their youngest son.

Sharing the sweet news with fans, Binky posted two sweet snaps of herself with baby Wilder last week.

One sees Binky and her youngest tot with her son Wolfie and daughter India, whom she shares with ex Josh 'JP' Patterson.

The group are sat on a wooden bridge with a picturesque background of a body of water surrounded by plants set behind them.

As she shared the pictures with her 1.4 million followers, Binky wrote her tot's names in the caption.

"INDIA • WOLFIE • WILDER," she penned before gushing: "I’m a very lucky mummy".

Binky announced she had given birth to her third child on Instagram last month.

Proud mum Binky revealed she was in labour as she posted a photo of herself laying in a hospital bed with a monitor strapped to her bump.

"Here we gooooooooo," she wrote in the caption.

Following her post, Binky's husband Max took a moment to pay tribute to his Made In Chelsea star wife as he posted a photo of her and called her a 'champion' in the caption.

Max's post soon sparked speculation the pair had welcomed their second child together as friends and fans commented messages of congratulations.

Binky later confirmed she's welcomed her third child, a son with a sweet montage video of the experience on her Instagram page.

The reality star shared candid videos from her packing her hospital before she tells the camera: "Today's the day, so excited to meet this little one."

Elsewhere in the video, she is seen walking hand-in-hand with Max as she explains: "We've been told to go for a walk to get everything going."

The camera then cuts to Binky wearing a hospital gown as she says she's "excited" – before the clips show Binky in labour and pushing before little Wilder makes an appearance.

She wrote in the caption alongside the video: "15.04.23 10:45pm! Couldn’t be happier he’s just perfect We now have three musketeers".
