Jorgie Porter shares candid snap with son Forest as she asks fans for breastfeeding advice 

She recently welcomed a baby boy named Forest with her fiancé Ollie Piotrowski. 

And Jorgie Porter gave her fans an insight into life as a new mum on Thursday as she admitted she was ‘terrified’ of not pumping enough milk for her newborn. 

The Hollyoaks star, 34, shared a candid snap to Instagram of Forest sleeping on her chest, and showed fans her breast pump.

Alongside the sweet image, Jorgie penned: ‘Todays challenge… trying to pump so my mum can look after Forest for a few hours.

‘Anyone else feel that in pregnancy soooooooo much is spoken about regarding birth and the baby but not a lot about what you might encounter after your baby is here?

‘Like seriously, breastfeeding is amazing and I consider myself lucky that I haven’t had many challenges so far, but I’m starting to need to leave Forest for a few hours and honestly feel like a need a degree to figure this out.’

Jorgie added: ‘Apart from not knowing ‘when’ the best time is to pump is, whilst making sure he’s getting what he needs now and pumping the ‘right’ amount for later… sometimes after all the faff I’m then struggling to pump a drop at all

‘So genuinely if anyone has any tips I’d love to know and for anyone who feels like me save this post and hopefully some lovely Instagram fairies will come up with some answers to help us in the comments’

Jorgie took to Instagram last month to reveal the happy news of her newborn son by sharing a picture of herself and Ollie leaving the hospital.

Alongside the sweet image, Jorgie penned: ‘Todays challenge… trying to pump so my mum can look after Forest for a few hours.’

She captioned the image with the words: ‘Welcome to the family…. Our baby boy .. Forest.’

Jorgie has previously bravely opened up about losing quadruplets at 14 weeks in a devastating miscarriage in August 2021.

She revealed that she had no idea that she’d lost her quadruplets from a previous pregnancy because her body was ‘still being pregnant’ after enduring a missed miscarriage.

The actress explained she opted for surgical removal while her fiancé Ollie discussed feeling ‘helpless’ throughout the ordeal.

She had a second miscarriage at six weeks into another pregnancy in February – on the day of the couples’ engagement party.

Disclosing the news about being pregnant again in HELLO! Magazine, the couple said having a ‘healthy baby was a dream come true’ as they spoke of their heartbreak after several miscarriages.
