1000-lbs Sisters star Amy leaves viewers 'heartbroken' after candid parenting confession

1000-lbs Sisters fans have been flooded with emotions after Amy tearfully questioned her parenting of her new baby.

The TLC reality star, 35, welcomed her baby son Glenn last summer but until now has kept his adorable face out of her social media.

The mum and son appear in the sweet snap chat shot where they have added a rose filter behind their ear and fake eyelashes.

She captioned the shot: "Just thinking of you brightens my morning."

But fans of the show were this week ready to heap praise on Amy when she questioned her parenting skills in a tear-jerking footage filming in the early days of her son's arrival.

The episode sees Amy and her husband Michael taking Gage and Glenn to a family barbeque just two weeks after Amy had her C-section.

Amy was seen taking her son Gage away from the group as he 'got fussy'.

But the mom-of-two admitted she was overwhelmed and questioned how she would cope with dividing her attention.

Amy explains: "The boys started crying and I'm trying to choose which one to give my attention to at that point in time and I just feel like, how am I gonna do this?

"How am I gonna be a mother to two boys and not hurt one of their feelings?"

But viewers clearly had her back and shared an emotional outpouring of support.

One wrote: "Amy, I never miss an episode of your show. You made me cry when you were questioning if you are a good mom. You are absolutely a great mom!"

Another commented: "My whole heart felt yours when you cried at the picnic. I think most moms have had moments of doubt, thinking how can we do all this."

A third said: "Amy you broke my heart when you cry and question your motherly skills. Honey, I think you are the best Mom."

A fourth added: "I just want to tell you after seeing the episode where you think you are not a good enough mom… you are a great mom. Loving and caring!"

But viewers were less supportive of Amy's husband who had carried one eating at the family gathering and instead her sister offered support.

Taking to Twitter after the moment aired, furious fans voiced their opinion on 'useless' Michael.

"How no one grabbed a baby and handed the baby to Michael I do not know," Tweeted one fuming viewer. "Like I am not a calm chill person when it comes to the obvious."
