Jesy Nelson reveals 'full-on' motherhood experience
Pop star Jesy Nelson has opened up about her experience of motherhood.
Jesy Nelson's experience of motherhood has been "so full-on".
The 34-year-old star's twin daughters, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe, have been diagnosed with SMA Type 1, a rare genetic condition that causes severe muscle weakness, and Jesy has now opened up about the challenges of raising her babies.
The pop star - who gave birth to her twins in May - told the Daily Mail: "Every day is so full-on, I can speak about it, but I'll never be able to explain how intense it is until you see it.
"There are a lot of medical things I have to do which I am still really struggling with; I'll be honest with you. I never expected that to be part of my life and it's tough.
"They're so tiny and I have to do things which I know are doing them good but at the time when they're crying and screaming, it feels like I'm hurting them and I hate that I have to be the person to do that. I just want to be their mum."
Jesy admits that her experience of motherhood has been a "rollercoaster" ride so far.
The former Little Mix star - who split from Zion Foster after giving birth - said: "I don't know how to explain my life in the day because sometimes it's really f****** s*** and then other times, I don't necessarily forget about their diagnosis but there are days when they are lighter and they're not as heavy.
"So many mums have told me that's what it's going to be like and that's why I need to take each day as it comes.
"It's a rollercoaster, I don't feel like this is going to be a steady journey at all.
"Right now, they're doing really well, thank God - they have had their infusion and that's the main thing. And they have each other and family around them who love them so much."
