Ice-T and his wife Coco Austin welcomed their baby girl on Saturday and have shared photos of baby Chanel via social media.
On Saturday, Austin gave birth early to their little girl and shared her first photo, showing the baby wide-eyed and alert. For the first photo of her daughter, Austen posted on Instagram, “Surprise!!! Look who came early!” Baby Chanel Nicole weighed 5.7 pounds at birth and was 18 inches long.
Austin said she was in tears in anticipation of meeting her little girl. Since her birth, Austin has posted new photos of the new addition, who is practically her daddy’s mini clone. E! News reported that just hours before the baby was born, Austin posted a photo of herself standing beside their Christmas tree. The new parents already made social media accounts for their baby, with captions showing the baby’s point of view. One photo shows the baby’s dimple, captioned “I got daddy’s dimple…”
Another photo shows baby Chanel just minutes after birth on her mother’s chest for skin to skin contact while Ice-T beams in the background. Chanel’s Instagram already has over 41k followers.
Austin and Ice-T announced the pregnancy news back in August and also revealed the baby’s name and sex. Austin has been open about her pregnancy journey on her blog, including dealing with questions about the size of her baby bump.
