Stacey Solomon praises her kids for being patient with her while she’s caring for her newborn

Olivia Hayes

She gave birth three weeks ago.

And now, Stacey Solomon has opened up about how she’s trying to juggle caring for her newborn and also spending time with her other children.

In a very honest Instagram post, Stacey spoke about everything from breastfeeding to the daunting thought of getting out of the house to interact with other humans.

She wrote: “Knowing that my boys don’t bat an eyelid that I’m sat playing with them whilst milking myself, or that I have to whack my boob out every hour makes me extremely proud.

“Trying to get a bit of one on one time with my big baby today in between feeds. Feel like I’ve neglected the boys over the last few weeks trying to get into a feeding pattern. I haven’t managed to get into one yet (IS THAT NORMAL??).

“I’ve now got to the point where I can’t expect them to entertain themselves any longer. The fact that they’ve been so amazing and understanding has made it a lot easier for me but also meant the guilt has set in a little stronger because they’re just so bloomin good.

She finished the post by saying while she’s happy to stay at home, she needs to get out into the real world soon:

“I really do need to get out of the house at some point in the near future too before I go stir crazy but honestly, the thought of having to wear actual clothes and interact with other humans is really daunting.

“When did anyone else leave the house after birth? Is 3 weeks too long? Send help…”
