Caggie, 35, has admitted there has been plenty of tears after her birth to her daughter did not go according to plan.
She also confirmed she and her boyfriend, whose name she is yet to share, have decided to call their daughter Lola Violet Liddell.
Caggie had to stay in hospital for two days following Lola's birth and said she found life tough once they had returned home.
Thankfully, the honest new mum has admitted things have started to improve.
Caggie made her candid admission alongside a sweet photograph of herself and her boyfriend as they left hospital with Lola Violet.
She described their baby girl as "tiny, but oh so mighty".
Caggie wrote: "It's been a tender few days of sleepless nights and deep healing - physically, emotionally, psychologically.
"Tears of overwhelming joy and love but also of exhaustion.
"The hormone crash alone is enough to floor you, but then there's the spiritual expansion that is so great it takes your breath away.
"In these first moments of motherhood, I've struggled to find words that truly capture it — but the one I come back to most is otherworldly."
Crediting her team of midwives, Caggie continued: "My birth didn't go the way I'd planned but I believe I had the birth I was meant to have.
"I was called to face my deepest fears - and divinely, I was graced with the most incredible midwives who held me through every moment.
"They made me feel safe, I trusted them. I could cry just thinking about them now as they were real life angels that made would could have been a gruelling birth experience into an overall positive one.
"This love is an all consuming and debilitating kind that brings you to your knees. I close my eyes and see her, I dream of her. I have nightmares of worry and confusion thinking I've lost her or imagined her.
"I wake moments before she stirs to feed or cry. I'm not quite sure what I've become, but I know I'm not the same.
"I think with the anxiety comes instinct, and the former gets a little less sharp and spikey each day."
Caggie described the feeling of leaving hospital as "surreal and dreamlike".
She has called the first five days of motherhood as "brutal", but added: "I feel like she is settling now which allows me to sleep more than 1 hour in a row!
"And the cuddles are just the greatest thing. Trying to soak it all in, go easy on myself and remain in our new born bubble, I know it won't last forever."
Caggie is a Made In Chelsea OG and starred in the E4 show for three series.
She and her boyfriend discovered they were expecting their first child together in September but held off until February to announce their happy news.
Caggie confirmed she had given birth earlier this week alongside some photographs that were taken during her pregnancy.
"The initiation into motherhood has been unlike anything I could have imagined," she admitted at the time.
"I'm just trying to keep my head above water. I'll share more in the coming days, but for now, we're deep in the 'newborn trenches,' as they say."

I'm so happy with my cheap & easy council house bathroom makeover – I used a £2.50 Poundland buy & TikTok Shop tiles
A DIY enthusiast has shared how she gave her bathroom a mega makeover for less than £100. Eager to keep the costs down, Amber, who is currently on a mission to turn her ' council house into a home,' used bargains from Poundland and TikTok Shop to transform her space from drab to fab. 2 So if you want to add style to your home and aren't sure where to start, you'll be pleased to know that you've come to the right place. Posting on social media, the content creator uploaded a short clip showing off her bathroom prior to its overhaul, which she shared with the caption 'On a budget and need to upcycle your bathroom? I got you!' Amber then revealed how she transformed her council bathroom for less than £100 as she beamed: 'I am so happy with the final results of this and I'm gonna show you how I did it.' Rather than forking out for a new shower system and posh tiles, Amber used a multi-purpose spray paint from Poundland and peel and stick self-adhesive tiles from TikTok Shop. She explained: 'So I used these TikTok shop tiles and some £2.50 spray paint from Poundland and I sprayed the f**k out of that shower cause it was yellow as f**k.' As she stuck the tiles to her bathroom wall, she added: 'I am obsessed with these tiles - I also have them in my kitchen, they've been up for six months now and they're still perfect. 'These tiles are a little bit trickier to put up than the ones in my kitchen because of the pattern, but, you know, it is doable. It's great, I'm literally obsessed.' Showing off the finished space, which was given a fresh new look quickly, easily and on a very tight budget, the DIY fan continued: 'I love it, this is such a cheap and easy way to transform your bathroom or your kitchen.' While Amber spent less than £3 on the black spray paint, her 'game changer' Living And Home peel and stick wall tiles, which you can buy from TikTok Shop, were £19.99 for a pack of 10. There's plenty of colours and styles to choose from and Amber acknowledged that she bought six packs but has 'loads spare.' Trolls say council houses can't look nice but my stunning hallway will prove them wrong The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ amberjw.x, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 130,500 views, 5,114 likes and 71 comments. DIY fans were impressed with Amber's simple but effective bathroom makeover and many eagerly raced to the comments to express this. One person said: 'Looks great!' Another added: 'Love it.' However, many had the same complaint, as one user begged: 'Please purchase a new shower head.' A second chimed in and asked: 'Why didn't you replace your shower head?' Whilst someone else wondered: 'Why didn't you do the shower head? It's still yellow.'

Sienna Miller just brought back the coin belt, here's how to wear it in 2025
At Wimbledon recently, you could have been forgiven for thinking it was 2005, not 2025. That's because the original Noughties It girl Sienna Miller was spotted in the Royal Box wearing a decidedly Y2K look by Ralph Lauren: a cropped crochet top, long tiered white skirt, and the pièce de résistance – a coin belt. It immediately called to mind her iconic boho looks of the early 2000s, when she would wear a trusty vintage Portobello Market belt slung low around her waist with a handkerchief hemline skirt. In many ways, its return isn't entirely surprising. The comeback has been building for some time. Since Chemena Kamali revived boho cool with her 2024 debut collection for Chloé – featuring her own take on the coin belt – the accessory's appeal has only grown stronger. Then, when fashion icon Miuccia Prada reimagined the classic wide coin belt for her spring/summer 2025 Miu Miu collection, the writing was firmly on the wall. For Miller, the coin belt never truly disappeared. In recent years, she's quietly worn them to add a bohemian edge to her more grown-up outfits – like pairing a belly chain with a brown polka-dot Alessandra Rich dress at a wedding in 2019, or draping a loose, low-slung crystal belt over a floaty floral handkerchief hem dress at a New York premiere in 2023. All this despite telling Vogue she never wanted to wear anything 'floaty or coin-belty ever again'. Orlagh McCloskey, one of the co-founders of Rixo, has always looked to vintage for inspiration, with coin belts being an accessory she was always drawn to. 'It's an accessory which I constantly came across in markets and spotted worn in the glamorous Sixties and Seventies,' says McCloskey. 'Creating our own version felt really natural and the perfect way to bring the vintage spirit into a modern wardrobe. We design our products to be dressed up and down, and adding an accessory like a coin belt is the perfect way to maximise wear and longevity of an outfit to style it from day to night.' 'Coin belts are one of my favourite summer accessories – easy to throw in a suitcase and they really make an outfit feel a little more considered,' agrees fashion broadcaster Polly Sayer, who has also designed one as part of her collaboration with Daisy London. 'Like a necklace, it often ends up the final finishing touch to my warm weather looks, so the team at Daisy London and I felt designing the shell belt was a natural evolution of our collection. I wear mine over a dress, with a bikini, or through the belt loops of some jorts.' For a grown-up way to wear coin belts now, stylist Serena Crawley recommends slimmer styles in brushed suede or soft leather. 'Swap harsh black for warm chocolate, camel, or taupe tones,' she says. 'Like Miller, look for coins or studs that are chunky and more uniform in their placement. Also look for a western-style belt buckle which will make the belt feel more contemporary. Hush's Seren studded belt in cream is a great example of this. Worn with white jeans, a denim blouse, and colourful ballet pumps that pop, this look will feel timeless and contemporary while nodding to the past coin belt trend.' Crawley's top tip is to choose a belt in a similar colour to the rest of your outfit, to tie the whole look together. As for where to position them, Crawley suggests low on the waist if you're tall and slim, and higher up if you're curvier, to cinch in a summer dress. Another option that feels more 2025 than 2005 is the chain belt. 'Chain belts look especially good over bold, playful, patterned dresses,' shares Crawley. 'The best part is that the chain won't break the flow of your outfit's pattern, making it a more flattering option than a thick leather belt. Think of it as jewellery for your waist. And if you are feeling particularly playful, try layering different chain belts over each other for a super contemporary look. Look at Miu Miu's SS25 runway for inspiration.' Crawley's final takeaway? Don't throw out your belts! 'As a personal stylist, I've delved into the depths of many wardrobes and belts are one accessory I'm always hesitant to let clients part with,' she says. 'As long as they're in good condition, they're worth keeping. A belt can elevate a simple summer dress, cinch your waist when you need to add shape or volume, or (as is the case with the coin belt) help you create a modern take on a vintage-inspired look.'

Bizarre moment bishop in dressing gown storms his OWN church demanding congregation stop their ‘racket' & let him sleep
THIS is the bizarre moment a bishop wearing a dressing gown storms into his own church and demands the congregation stops the "racket". The disgruntled bishop interrupted the concert in London to demand they "leave his house". Jonathan Baker, the bishop of Fulham, stood barefoot in front of a puzzled 300-strong audience. "You are in my house - can you leave it now please. Thank you, it's over," he said. "You are in my house. It's gone past 10pm and this is a terrible racket." A church staff ,member then asked the crowd to leave which triggered boos. The choir didn't leave without playing one last song, however. They sang an Acappella version of ABBA' Dancing Queen before stepping down. Benedict Collins, who was there with his 10-year-old daughter, told Sky News he thought the bishop was joking at first. "This work deserves respect, not to be disparaged as a 'terrible racket'," he slammed. A spokesperson for the Diocese of London told The Guardian: "Bishop Jonathan reached out to the organisers on Saturday to apologise for his late-night appearance at the concert, which he now understands had overrun due to technical difficulties." is your go-to destination for the best celebrity news, real-life stories, jaw-dropping pictures and must-see video.
