Chloe Madeleygave birth to herbaby girl on Wednesday 10 Augustwith husband James Haskell.
Since then, the 35 year old daughter of British TV presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan has been speakingabout her daughter Bodhi’s birth “not going to plan”.
And now, alongside an intimate picture of herself breastfeeding her daughter, Chloe shared that she delivered her daughter via an emergency C-section.
The photo, which looks as though it's a polaroid picture, is an honest account from Chloe on what life looks like for her at the moment where she talked about the most apprehensive thing she was feeling throughout her whole pregnancy.
Chloe wrote: “The thing I was most apprehensive about my whole pregnancy? It wasn’t the childbirth, which I was quietly certain would go to plan [laughing emoji].
“It wasn’t the fact we were moving house at 37 weeks. It was breastfeeding, which I was absolutely certain would fall apart for me in a matter of days, if not hours, like it did for so many friends and family members of mine.
“What I learned throughout my pregnancy, and what I’ve learned since in the postnatal period, is not to take your body personally (even though your visceral reaction will likely tell you to). Don’t do it.
“Don’t think that because you expect your body to do something, it will, and don’t think you should attach any kind of emotion to that whatsoever.”
Chloe added: “I could never have predicted that I’d end up getting an emergency c-section, or why, and I could never have predicted that breastfeeding would come so naturally to both my body and my baby.
“After a decade long love affair of action / reaction between myself and my body respectively, I can safely say that the tables have turned. Expectations…lol.”
Chloe was praised by many in the comment section for her honesty about her feelings towards her body.
One person wrote: “Love this [fire emoji] be proud of your body!”
While another added: “My heart sings for you! You go mama.”
A third said: “One inspirational and incredible mama [heart emoji] Loving your story, thank you for being so transparent.”
Chloe and James exclusively shared the news of their daughter's birth with OK!, as they said: “We are delighted to welcome to the world our daughter. We are utterly besotted and beaming with pride”.
They also shared the first sweet snap of their little one, who arrived this week, with the shot showing their baby girl's hand.
Chloe announced she was expecting in February , as she simultaneously announced that her and James' first child was a girl.
