Stacey Solomon has opened up about how she sometimes feels like a “failure” as she juggles looking after five children, saying that she tries to remind herself about how well she’s doing instead.
The Loose Women star, 33, uploaded a sweet post to Instagram, in which she discussed the self-doubt she sometimes feels as a parent, deciding to be kind instead of talking down to herself, quipping that she was feeling “like a superhuman”.
She wrote: “Proud Feeling like I smashed it today Don’t mind if I sound big headed but I felt like a superhuman today.
“For some reason lately I’ve found it easy to tell myself that I’m failing or doing a rubbish job & I never tell myself how well im doing. Three 3 & under & two teenagers is wonderful but it’s not easy.”
The TV personality opened up about having three children under three (instagram/ @staceysolomon)She continued: “Joe did a night feed for me last night & then went to work So we did the school runs and then afterwards I managed to make it for the first time EVER to Rhyme time at the library with Rex, Rose & Belle Spent some time with other mum’s & felt so nice to see Rex & Belle enjoying being out of the house.

“Sorry for the essay. but basically Just a little reminder that you’re doing amazing, even when you feel like you’re not. You’re so incredible don’t forget to tell yourself that sometimes.”
