Stacey Solomon admittes she forgot how difficult breastfeeding can be after she recently gave birth to her daughter. The Loose Women panelist celebrated with her husband Joe Swash as she shared photos of the new arrival over the weekend.
Stacey, 33, gave birth in her Essex mansion, Pickle Cottage, which she also did for her first daughter, Rose. Although she is keeping the name of her newborn under wraps for now, she did allow fans a sneak peek into her life through Instagram.
The mum shared a video of herself and Joe, 40, weighing the new baby, who was wrapped in a blanket. This is the couple's second child after Rose was born in October 2021. Despite there being just sixteen months between the two, she admitted she forgot how hard breastfeeding is with a newborn, reports the Daily Record.

She wrote: "I'm sitting in bed doing the cluster feeds ahead of the night time (I forgot how hard breastfeeding is at the beginning but I'm so excited to establish it)." Addressing her fans, she added: "Your messages, comments, stories and everything are just so so so AMAZING. Thank you. I'm so grateful for my family on here and I just love you."
"My milk came in today so I'm an emotional mess [laughing emoji] But love you lots and lots & can't wait to catch up with you all properly."
She continued: "She's incredible and the other pickles are just so in love with her. This video makes me cry. Goodnight everyone, see you on the other side of the night feed."
On Saturday, the panelist shared that she had welcomed the new baby with a series of family photos. She wrote: "She’s Here, our beautiful, daughter born at home with all of your brothers and sister ready to snuggle you forever and ever.
"You literally flew into our world… And none of us can quite believe your thick dark head of hair that we just can’t get over. We can’t believe you're here.
"Welcome to the world beautiful girl, thank you for the last few months in my tummy, we can’t wait to love you forever and ever we are so grateful we get to be your family," she added.
Stacey also has a three-year-old named Rex with Joe while she has two 14-year-old children from a previous relationship. Joe also has a 15-year-old child named Harry from a previous relationship. The pregnancy news last year surprised a lot of the couple's fans.
She wrote on Instagram: "Coming soon… Much sooner than we thought. When we found out we still wanted to have that first few months you usually would to adjust and get excited and enjoy it to ourselves, but that didn’t leave us with very long left.
"So this time next month we will be getting ready to say hello to a whole new pickle. So grateful."
