Lydia Bright reveals baby daughter Loretta has conjunctivitis

Lydia Bright shared the challenges of parenting on Instagram on Wednesday. 

The first-time mum, 303, told fans her seven-week-old daughter had been unsettled throughout the night after getting conjunctivitis. 

Lydia admitted she sobbed to her sister Georgia on Sunday night after a week of interrupted sleep. 

Lydia shared a sweet clip of her daughter and wrote: ‘My little Loretta has conjunctivitis. Today I got her eye drops and now she is so much happier. 

‘Nothing beats this smile’. 

She continued: ‘Last week Loretta was such a challenge. On Sunday I was sobbing to my sister, this was what she messaged me when I was in bed on Sunday night.’

Lydia went on to share an encouraging message from her sister Georgia, who told her she was a ‘fantastic mum’ and told her she should go to their mum Debbie for some much needed advice. 

After switching up Loretta’s bedtime routine, it appears the former TOWIE star has been able to sleep uninterrupted. 

Lydia posted a make-up free selfie of herself pouting as she sat in her car and captioned the snap: ‘The face of a mumma who got eight hours sleep’ (sic). 

In another post, the reality star wrote: ‘Just remember you are doing amazing. Parenthood is the most incredible journey in the world but it can also be a tough challenge. 

‘If you are having a s**t time always remember tomorrow is a different, new day. 

‘And always talk to friends, family or even strangers on social media to get through the low points.’ 

It comes after Lydia was reunited with her younger brother Freddie on Tuesday.

Freddie, who had been travelling in Asia for the past four months, returned to Britain due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Following his period of isolation, Freddie wasted no time meeting his baby niece, Loretta Rose.  

The reality star was moved to tears as Freddie picked up Loretta for a big hug and snuggle before cooing after the newborn in her pram. 

The Brights will no doubt be pleased to have Freddie back home with them, as Lydia and sisters Georgia and Romana have been staying with parents Debbie and Dave at the family home in Essex.  

Lydia recently shared the emotional moment she visited her grandmother with her newborn daughter amid the pandemic.   

The star explained in the caption her family have been taking turns to visit their gran each day and hopes once the current COVID-19 crisis is tackled, people will give more support to the elderly.

She began: ‘Bringing my nan a ray of sunshine during self isolation. I have never been so grateful to live on the same road as my grandma.

‘We’re a close knit family and we make sure my nan always has at least one visitor daily, however during self quarantine she has been so teary with not seeing her family and being able to hug us all.
