Tanya Burr has candidly revealed she’s been struggling with breastfeeding and was ‘ready to give up’ after giving birth to her son Sage.

Taking to Instagram Stories, the actress, 33, admitted that trying to nurse her baby boy meant that ‘everything hurt,’ but after turning a corner has found it to be one of her ‘favourite times’ with her son.

Captioning her post, Tanya said: ‘Just wanted to share this photo of me feeling so happy whilst breastfeeding earlier today… 

‘The important part I want to share is that the reason I took this photo was because I wanted a photo memory of this moment as it was a special one for me – this time last week I felt ready to give up… 

‘Everything hurt and my supply was too much and I was finding it really difficult.

‘So thankful I kept going as I know I would have felt so sad if I’d given up as I don’t think you can really start up again if you stop (don’t quote me on that) and when I’m not in pain it’s one of my favourite times with my son and I know how much he benefits from it.

‘Becoming a mother has been the most magic, beautiful thing…we are in a cocoon of love right now and just couldn’t be more grateful for him. 

‘All I want to do is pause time and soak up every moment, each day feels like it’s passing by so fast in a blur of skin to skin cuddles, sleeplessness, breastfeeding, nappies and tears. 

‘He has brought us so much happiness already, our love for him is unparalleled.’

Tanya revealed she was pregnant with her first child in June, posting a sweet black and white snap to Instagram page of her blossoming bump that she and her mystery partner cradled.

The Twist actress captioned the image: ‘We love you so much already little [peanut].’

The Youtuber shared a number of photos showcasing her blossoming bump throughout her pregnancy, no doubt being accompanied by her partner whose identity she has chosen not to disclose.

Tanya did not disclose her beau’s identity after previously vowing to keep her partner’s name secret because she felt like she ‘overshared’ during her rise to fame.

The vlogger went through a very public divorce in 2019 with fellow YouTuber Jim Chapman, with the former couple earning a legion of fans with their joint videos.

While Tanya has shared subtle glimpses of her boyfriend on social media, she has not shown his face or shared his name.
