The joys and displeasures of motherhood! Days after welcoming her first child with husband Ice-T - a daughter named Chanel Nicole - new mom Coco Austin has encountered her first problem: breastfeeding. In a Facebook post, the 37-year-old reality star shared that she was feeling the agonizing effects of nursing her daughter.
"Can I just say though.. My nipples feel like they are gonna fall off they're so raw from breastfeeding #NewMommyproblems" the reality star wrote on her Facebook page Sunday.
Despite the "new mommy problems," Coco told her followers that she is loving being a mother. "Sorry for the silence but still in hospital after giving birth yesterday," she shared. "I've had my hands full focusing on being the best mother I can be! I'm so freaking in love. I've had an angel watch over me during my whole pregnancy & labor cuz it went beautiful every step of the way. My dad calls me a breeder lol.."
As previously reported by HNGN, Coco gave birth on Saturday afternoon at the Englewood Hospital and Medical Center in Englewood, N.J. She announced the arrival of her newborn via social media, along with posting a photo of her new bundle of joy.
"Surprise!!! Look who came early!!" she wrote on Facebook and Instagram. "Welcome, the new arrival of Chanel Nicole. A beautiful healthy 5.7 pound and 18-inch baby girl. Ice and I are so proud! I cried while she was coming out I was so excited to meet her!"
Since her arrival, little Chanel Nicole has become the youngest member on Twitter and Instagram, as both accounts were created hours after her birth. She already has more than 99,000 followers on Instagram and 21,000 Twitter followers.
In July, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child together on the premiere episode of their talk show "Ice & Coco."
