Stacey Solomon begs fans 'don't shout at me' as she shares parenting milestone with two-week old daughter Belle

Stacey Solomon has shared her latest parenting milestone after navigating life as a mum-of-five. The 33-year-old gave birth to her second daughter Belle just two weeks ago at her family home Pickle Cottage, which she shares with husband Joe Swash.

The Loose Women panellist shocked fans after announcing the joyous news of her pregnancy back in December, which she said was a 'A HUGE surprise, but one that we are so thankful for'. Soon after on February 11, Stacey announced the birth of her third child with former EastEnders actor Joe, whom she also shares son Rex, three, and daughter Rose, one, with.

The Sort Your Life Out presenter has been keeping fans updated with adorable pictures and videos of baby Belle with her older siblings, her sons Leighton and Zac from two previous relationships, as well as documenting her new born journey.

But Stacey has now been forced to tell fans 'don't shout at me' after sharing something that she was new to this time around.

The former X Factor contestant revealed that she was trying out a sling for the first time to carry her two-week old daughter whilst going for a walk.

Sharing a video of her tying the sling around her in an Instagram story, Stacey said: "So it's the last day of half term before they're back in school so we went for a nice long walk this morning.

"This is the first time I've ever tried a sling so if I'm doing it wrong please just message some helpful tips, don't shout at me.

"Belle loved it in here and it was nice to have her so close to me."

Stacey then shared a snap with her 5.5 million followers of Belle in the sling, as she added a lovely comment from a fan who was complimenting her efforts.

Later on her stories, the mum-of-five revealed a parenting milestone that she has never reached before with any of her previous four children.

Sharing a picture of her daughter on the scales, Stacey wrote: "We just had our two-week health visitor check and for the first time in five baby's Belle is above her birth weight of 5lb 10 ounces and is now 6lb 8 onches."

She then admitted to having a 'little cry' at the emotional achievement.

"I had a little cry. Breastfeeding is working well and she's loving it. My little piggy."
