Vinnie was born February 19th at 12:21pm

The blonde beauty took to Instagram to share the happy news, as she announced the arrival of Vinnie Alan Barker Hinchliffe, who was born at 12:21pm and weighed 6lb7oz.

Since Vinnie’s arrival, Sophie has been open with her 4.8 million followers about her parenting journey, but has now shared a very significant health update.

Not only did Sophie reveal her own terrifying health scare just weeks after welcoming her third child, but now, after suffering a blood clot in her groin, pelvis, and leg, which required an emergency operation, it appears little Vinnie is suffering too.

Posting on her Instagram stories, the cleaning guru, who recently made an embarrassing admission about ‘most painful’ third labour, explained that her one-month-old son may have a mixture of silent reflux, colic, or potentially a milk allergy.

The influencer, 34, wrote: “Just a little update on our journey with Vinnie.

“Firstly I need to say that Ron and Len would have their milk, big burp, be content, and then more or less go to sleep, so this is a whole new ballgame for us!

“BUT today we had Vinnie's first cranial osteopathy appointment and tonight is the FIRST night Vinnie has settled before 9:30pm without the 3 hour non stop crying in discomfort, without fussy feeding and without arching his back when I try to wind him.

“Now we still don't know if this is silent reflux, colic or a milk allergy yet! Or all 3!”;

In an attempt to fix the issue, Sophie acknowledged: “But we have started the process of elimination, so infant gaviscon for the reflux, dentinox colic drops for potential colic, and we are now on prescribed milk for potential CMPA (cows milk protein allergy).”;

Sophie, who shares her three boys with husband Jamie, 46, a sales manager from Essex, continued: “I need to roll with this for 3 more weeks and then start reintroducing milk slowly from there and see how we go.”;

The star, who took an eight week break from social media after her dad’s death last year, then claimed that she has stopped breastfeeding Vinnie.

She admitted: “My breastfeeding journey ended for multiple reasons and I'm still devastated about it BUT I'm really trying to keep positive and hoping that we are going to get to the bottom of this.”;

Any parent would say seeing their baby clearly so uncomfortable and in pain is awful and triggers so much anxiety

Despite her attempts to keep positive, the mother, who previously shared an update with fans regarding her grief journey, expressed the ‘anxiety’ she is currently feeling.

She concluded: “Because any parent would say seeing their baby clearly so uncomfortable and in pain is awful and triggers so much anxiety.”;

What is colic?

Colic affects up to one in five babies, according to the NHS.

It is the name given for a baby who appears to be otherwise health but excessively and frequently cries.

It tends to begin when infants are a few weeks old and usually stops by the time they're aged four months (six months at the latest).

Symptoms of colic include:

  • intense bouts of crying
  • crying in the late afternoon or evening that lasts several hours
  • a red and flushed face when the baby cries
  • your baby clenching their fists, drawing their knees up to their tummy, or arching their back while crying

Although colic can be difficult for parents, it is important to remember that your baby will get better eventually and that it is not your fault.

The exact causes of colic are unknown, but it has been suggested that indigestion, trapped wind and temporary gut sensitivity could be to blame.

The NHS recommend the following tips for helping your baby.

  • holding your baby during a crying episode
  • preventing your baby swallowing air by sitting or holding them upright during feeding
  • burping your baby after feeds
  • gently rocking your baby over your shoulder
  • bathing your baby in a warm bath
  • gently massaging your baby's tummy

Sophie's fans support

Sophie’s fans were desperate to support the mum-of-three and many eagerly commented on her story post to praise the influencer.

One person said: “You do what’s best for you and Vinnie, you’ve got this.”;

Meanwhile, someone else chimed in: “Don’t be hard on yourself! You’re doing amazing Sophie!”;
