Jess said: "A very different post to my last one… it’s taken me a while to get the courage to post this but ultimately, it is what it is.
"My psoriasis has taken a turn for the worse since having a baby & I wanted to share it for anyone else suffering with it, in the hope it might make you feel less alone with it / we may be able to help each other eventually with remedies.
"I spend my days covering up my arms, and now unfortunately my legs & face are pretty bad too & im bloody sick of it.
"I have tried so many things in the past but I feel like it’s auto immune so ultimately it’s what we put into our bodies.
"If anyone has a miracle cure please let me know.
"Sending love to anyone else suffering a skin condition, especially new mums who have clearly been hit with it by the lack of sleep/stressful first few months."
