Ex-Home and Away star Sam Frost shares ‘difficult’ baby update

Sam Frost has shared an update on motherhood two months after the birth of her son Ted.

The former Home and Away star, 34, revealed on her blog Faith by Sam FrosT, she has found that breastfeeding is the “hardest” part of motherhood.

“I found it very difficult emotionally, mentally and physically…When Teddy was born, he committed perfectly,” she began.

“I remember looking at him and thinking how wonderful this experience is, how primal and special breastfeeding your newborn is.”

“After a few days my nipples were cracked, raw and bleeding. I was in so much pain. A friend had said she found breastfeeding more difficult than giving birth – I had an epidural so I totally agreed.’

She said she was advised to “get through it,” but it seemed to “get worse with each feeding.”

“With every feeding I cried… not just cute little tears, I sobbed. Little Ted was starting to get upset and frustrated, he was crying too,’ she said.

Sam explained that using a breast pump and bottle feeding has taken a lot of the pressure off her.

The actress and she fiancée Jordie Hansen welcomed their son Ted in March.

‘This is Ted. Theodore Paul Frost-Hansen. There are no words to describe how much we love you • 07/03/2023,” Sam wrote at the time with a sweet photo of her newborn baby.

The couple’s famous friends were quick to congratulate them on their new addition.

‘This is Lucky Ted! What great news Sam. Massive congratulations to all of you… and in all the magical moments ahead. xx,” wrote Lisa Wilkinson.

Sam and her Australian Survivor star partner got engaged in July after a five-month relationship and announced in September that they were expecting a child.
