As well as sharing the pain her nipples were enduring, Laura gave further insights into her journey as she responded to fans in the comments.
As one fan suggested her issue could be because Bonnie may have had ‘tongue tie’, Laura was quirk to assure that her tot was fine, remarking: ‘all good and checked.’
Another questioned why she was hurting and suggested the TV star see a lactation consultant, with Laura then responding: ‘I had mastitis so just a bit tender still.’
Meanwhile, an additional fan assured the new mum that her nipple issues would clear up after four week, with Laura then making a quip about how her nipples would have ‘fallen off’ by then.
She joked: ‘Is that because my nipples would have fallen off. She’s so strong I swear, greedy guts. My boobs are 2 times bigger than her head.’
It comes after Laura proudly showed off post-partum figure last week as she posed for a mirror selfie.
Wearing a plunging black bra with a pair of grey shorts, she shared the update to Instagram and said she’ felt pretty good.’
Alongside the photo, she wrote: ‘I was just going to share this with my friends and family but who cares. This is my post-partum body day 12.

‘I actually feel alright today. (I swear it’s the fake tan) I’m starting pelvic floor exercises tomorrow to bring the abdominal muscles back together but feel pretty good today.’
She then joked: ‘P.S I hop you like my disposable pants and no I haven’t washed my hair for some time.’
Day previously, Laura joked about the realities of her ‘glamorous’ post-partum life after a tough labour which she’d earlier admitted left her ‘a little bit’ hurt.
The TV star showed off purple bruises on her forearms and in the crook of her elbow, with the injuries seemingly caused by a cannula inserted to administer medicine and the reality of giving birth.

Laura also informed her followers that she is suffering from mastitis, which occurs when a milk duct in the breast becomes blocked. This leads to milk banking up and the surrounding tissue becoming inflamed.
‘Got mastitis already, eek, so off for some antibiotics’, Laura explained, before going on to give further details about her labour.
She added: ‘P.S don’t be a hero and get that epidural. Do not wait until you’re 9cm.’
In addition to mastitis and bruised arms, Laura added that her ‘cankles’ (swollen ankles) had subsided, but noted she had additional post-birth symptoms which she’ll ‘hold off’ sharing for now.
