Stacey Solomon shares sweet snap of baby son sleeping on her chest after admitting breast feeding struggles

STACEY Solomon has shared a sweet snap of her baby son sleeping on her chest after admitting she was struggling with breast feeding her third child.

The Loose Women star, 29, was all smiles after she bravely opened up about having a “total meltdown” a week after giving birth.

Putting her difficulties to one side, Stacey beamed as she snuggled up to her newborn who was amusingly resting on his front.

Stacey told fans: “Mood… I’m jealous! I can’t wait to sleep like this.”

The TV personality welcomed her third child “earlier than planned” last week and has since been very candid about her life with her new baby, and also admitted to being “ridiculously teary”.

Her partner Joe however, came under fire today for posting about calling his newborn son and eldest child his ‘whole world’.

The former EastEnders actor was called out by fans for leaving Stacey and her two sons from previous relationships out of the sweet post.

Joe, 37, was talking about his son Harry and his new addition, whose name has not yet been revealed.

Stacey gave birth to her and boyfriend Joe Swash‘s son on May 23, and has been honest about her daily struggles, and also the joy, of having a newborn.

Captioning an emotional post alongside a sweet snap of her holding her baby, Stacey wrote: “Today is a smiley day. it’s been an interesting week. But it feels like the fog is lifting and I’m coming out of the fuzz.

“I’m so grateful to have our baby boy with us and be surrounded by my incredible family – my biggest privilege. But it doesn’t mean it’s been all rosey and glossy.

“Hormone surges + really struggling to breastfeed + no sleep what so ever + engorged boobs + cracked nipples + absolutely anything as minuscule as somebody kissing my babies head = total meltdown.”

Stacey added: “I’ve found myself spontaneously uncontrollably sobbing into my mums arms, at least twice every day.

“Then I feel guilty that I’m not ‘enjoying every second’ like everyone tells you too because it passes by so quickly (and it does, my eldest is 11 and I feel like I just blinked and that happened).”

The new post comes just days  after she admitted she’s “ridiculously teary” after giving birth.

Taking to Instagram on Sunday evening, Stacey, posted a picture of her in her PJs lying on the sofa next to her baby boy in his cot.

As she rested her hand on his tiny fingers and stared at him lovingly, she wrote: “Caption…. welcome home, my love.

“Feeling ridiculously teary today. He’s just so teeny and precious and I want to do the very best I can by him.

“I never thought I’d say this but If I could put him back inside my tummy for another year I would.”
