Stacey Solomon has been praised by fans, for sharing a refreshingly honest postpartum post on Instagram.
The Loose Women star welcomed her first child with Joe Swash “a lot earlier than planned” last week.
Days after giving birth to their son one month early, Stacey shared a sweet snap of Joe kissing her postpartum bump.
In the caption, the new mum wrote: “I’ve lost it today. I really miss my bump and baby being inside me. I don’t feel I appreciated it enough while I was pregnant and now it’s over.”
“Joe and I didn’t have one picture of him with my bump. The thought of not having that memory has been really getting me down so today, Joe and my Dad helped me get a picture of what’s left of my bump to cheer me up. I love them so much. It’s not the same but it still means the world to me.”
“For the record, for all of the people who asked me how excited I was to get my pre baby body back? Was I hoping to ‘snap back’? Am I going to train? Etc etc. I hate these questions. They’re pointless. And not important or relevant.”
“No one knows how they’re going to feel and what we look like after birth is the very least of our worries. The truth is I’m devastated that my belly is shrinking by the day.
“I wish it could stay around for a little longer. I feel empty and hollow. Not to mention like I’ve been punched in the vagina,” she added.
