Dani Harmer has revealed that her newborn son Rowan has a tongue ligation that prevents her from breastfeeding.

The 33-year-old Tracy Beaker star shared on Instagram on Sunday that the strip of skin that connects the baby’s tongue under the mouth is shorter than normal.

Dani gave birth to her second child with husband Simon Brough last month and named him Rowan Leon James.

Dani shared Louise Thompson’s post and wrote: ‘Thanks to @louise.thompson for posting this!! Some of us are trying to breastfeed, but challenges come our way!’

She continued: “My recovery was going to be unplanned and Rowan had a language problem that forced us to bottle feed! A happy and healthy child is the most important thing.”

The 31-year-old former Made In Chelsea star described in her own post how she felt “too embarrassed to say no” to breastfeeding while experiencing “excruciating pain”.
