Kylie and Travis, 25, announced the birth of the tot over the weekend, when the ‘Life of Kylie’ star took to Instagram to share a message with her followers, following the nine months she had managed to keep her pregnancy under wraps.

She wrote: “I’m sorry for keeping you in the dark through all the assumptions. I understand you’re used to me bringing you along on all my journeys. My pregnancy was one I chose not to do in front of the world. I knew for myself I needed to prepare for this role of a lifetime in the most positive, stress free and health way I knew how. There was no gotcha moment, no big paid reveal I had planned. I knew my baby would feel every stress and every emotion so I chose to do it this way for my little life and our happiness.

“Pregnancy has been the most beautiful, empowering and life changing experience I’ve had in my entire life and I’m actually going to miss it. I appreciate my friends and especially my family for helping me make this special moment as private as we could. My beautiful and healthy baby girl arrived February 1st and I just couldn’t wait to share this blessing. I’ve never felt love and happiness like this I could burst. Thank you for understanding.”

Kylie has been receiving a lot of love from family and friends since the birth of her daughter, and took to Snapchat to share the beautiful gifts from those closest to her.
