A mother in the UK took to FaceBook recently to share an embarrassing story with other mothers.
A few hours after getting a spray tan Gemma Colley breastfed her sun, only to find that he had been fake tanned via her. The baby boy was sporting an orange 5 o'clock shadow and can be seen above.
Â
Colley's post in the FaceBook group "The Unmumsy Mum" read "From one mum to another, I'd like to let you know about my epic fail of fails. Yesterday I had a spray tan, a few hours later I breastfed my little boy. Cue 5 o'clock shadow and a very guilty mummy. Lesson to you all. Don't do this."
Â
Since posting, the photo has been liked over 100,000 times and messages of suppo - even some sharing similar stories.
The baby boy's face is now getting back to normal, and the child has come to no harm.
