Teddi Mellencamp gave birth to her third child, a baby girl, on Tuesday, February 25. The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills star shared the good news with fans in an Instagram post on Wednesday morning.
The 38-year-old wrote, “Guess what, baby girl. You are stuck with us because we are absolutely in love with you. ? #aboutlastnight.”
In the photo she posted, Teddi and her husband Edwin Arroyave sat on a couch in her birthing suite with their baby girl. Teddi wore a loose, off-the-shoulder gray dress as she cradled the baby in her arms. Edwin, 42, wore a gray shirt and camouflage pants. His arms were wrapped around his wife. The proud parents have yet to reveal the baby’s name.

“My husband said, ‘I don’t want to see you going through IVF again — that was brutal,’” Teddi revealed. “It was so many rounds, but this time we really weren’t doing anything! I was on vacation! Just having fun with my family!
It was a complete surprise. I didn’t even know I was because I didn’t have a regular cycle.”
