Good Morning Britain presenter Charlotte Hawkins gave birth to Ella Rose in March and brought her into the studio today to meet the team.
Speaking about her gorgeous baby girl, Charlotte said: “She’s started to sleep through the night now which is an amazing achievement. We had to wake her up to bring her in this morning so she’s doing quite well considering.
“It’s a whirlwind, it’s like a mini tornado hits isn’t it, as soon as you have a baby?
"And it is extremely full, the first few weeks; it’s starting to calm down now a bit because she’s started to get into some sort of routine but to begin with it’s just crazy and nothing prepares you for it.”
But, while plenty of mums might assume that Charlotte would be used to early morning starts thanks to her job, she’s revealed that this is absolutely not the case.
She explained: “Well I thought because of the job that we do and I’m used to getting up in the middle of the night, not getting that much sleep so I thought I’d be quite used to that but turns out no.
“This is sleeplessness on a whole new level because of course you’re waking up every couple of hours, even when you are asleep you’re on high alert and even when they’re asleep you’re checking them, going ‘are they breathing, are they still moving?’”
**Do you agree with Charlotte’s comments on motherhood? How did you learn to deal with the sleeplessness of it all?
