Stacey Solomon has admitted she feels 'sad' and is struggling with exhaustion six weeks after the birth of her baby girl.
The Loose Women panelist, who is currently on maternity leave, opened up to her followers while cuddling up to daughter Rose in bed.
She told on Instagram : "And we’re back in bed again. Shock horror. I am as tired as I look – I look like a small boy.
"I’ve just got no energy. I had so many plans for my maternity leave and can’t wait to get some energy back and do all the stuff I imagined we’d be doing.
''All the Christmas markets…"


But the outpouring of her motherhood journey was possibly cut short as Rose started to cry.
She added: "I feel a bit sad that it’s flying by and the days are so short and I’m not doing anything because I’m so tired.
“Sounds so silly, I know. I think it’s just because I’m more than halfway through and I’m feeling like I don’t want it to be over.''
But in typical Stacey fashion, she found humour in her struggle, joking: ''Rose is like, ‘I don’t care where we go as long as those boobs come with us’."
Rose is Stacey’s second child with 39-year-old fiancé Joe Swash – having previously welcomed a son named Rex together in 2019.

Stacey has two other sons, 13-year-old Zachary and nine-year-old Leighton, from previous relationships, while she is also step-mum to Joe’s son Harry, 14.
Stacey's fiancé Joe Swash recently captured her levels of exhaustion as he snapped a photo of her falling asleep while sat up in a chair.
And although Stacey may feel her maternity leave is slipping by in the blink of an eye, her Insta feed is flooded with adorable pictures of her gorgeous family making memories together.
Sharing shots from a recent Sunday morning with all of his children snuggled up in her bed she captioned a post: "Hello Sunday… I think I’m just going to squeeze in there with them for the day. But first I just had to stand over the top of you all like a weirdo and take a picture.
“These are my favourite memories… The room in the bed is a little bit smaller these days but our hearts are a whole lot bigger.
“It still doesn’t feel real that you’re here Rose. Happy Sunday everyone. I hope this makes you smile as much as it did me this morning.”
