Gogglebox star Ellie Warner welcomed her baby son Ezra just a few weeks, introducing him on-screen during an episode of the popular Channel 4 series.
And since the new arrival the TV star and hairdresser, 32, has been sharing updates with her 488k Instagram followers, recently sharing some sweet snaps from the tot's naming ceremony.
Returning to Instagram, Ellie has candidly opened up about how she's developed the painful condition mastitis from breastfeeding her son.
Sharing a snap of herself breastfeeding with Ezra in a sling, Ellie penned the caption: "Today at the sling library! Can’t wait to take it out for a test drive, got a bit of mastitis, but it’s getting better now thank god."
Commenting on the photo Ellie's sister, and Gogglebox co-star Izzi wrote: "Wangers out Wednesday [two disco ball emojis."
While a fan quipped: "Mastitis is the worse. I ended up feeding my son from just one boob and I looked like someone who could only afford one silicon implant [three laughing emojis".
Others were quick to share tips for coping with the pain, with one writing: "Cabbage leaves in ya bra really works" and a second added: "Cold cabbage leaves works wonders, warm flannels and hand express to realise pressure helps! What a beautiful natural photo."
According to the NHS, mastitis is when the breast becomes swollen, hot and painful, and is most common in breastfeeding women.
The NHS website suggests applying a cloth soaked in warm water or a cold compress to ease symptoms and improve milk flow.
Ellie announced her pregnancy on Gogglebox back in December and then shared a sweet photo on Instagram, where she cradled her bump and joked: "Belly full of Christmas dinner."
The reality TV star, who shares the sofa on screen with her sister Izzi, experienced some health issues during her pregnancy, revealing on a later episode of Gogglebox in late March that she'd been diagnosed with gestational diabetes.
Shortly after the newborn appeared on TV for the first time, the star took to Instagram where she shared an adorable snap of her son sleeping and shared his unique name in the caption.
Ellie, who shares her son with her partner Nat Eddlestone, wrote: "Sweet baby Ezra. He has made our lives complete. We love you so much son."
