Giving birth is one of the most personal experiences a mom can go through, so it's completely understandable why some choose to keep it private.
However, there are also women who feel empowered by sharing their birth stories. Actress Hilary Duff recently decided to share an intimate video with her fans taken shortly after her daughter was born.
This beautiful video captures the moment Hilary first held and met her daughter. Get your tissues ready for this one.
They made the announcement with this sweet picture posted to Instagram that showed off Hilary's growing bump.
Hilary also has a seven-year-old son, Luca, from her marriage to Mike Comrie which ended in 2016.
Hilary's fans were so excited that the actress was growing her family.
She even teased her daughter's name in this post with the hashtag #WaitingOnYouB.
How precious is this photo? Congrats to the beautiful family on the arrival of a healthy baby girl.
Take, for example, this pic of Hilary and Banks getting some much-needed rest. Those first few weeks are so tiring but so worth it.
Okay, I don't think my heart can handle this. Luca is going to be the best big brother. I can tell!
She's not even my daughter and I feel like she's growing up so fast. Also, is it just me or does Banks look exactly like her mama?
"I’ve been wondering for a long time if I would ever share this video as it is extremely personal...." Hilary wrote in the caption that accompanied this video taken moments after Banks was born.
Hilary cradles her new daughter during this beautiful moment captured on video.
Thank you so much for sharing this personal video with us, Hilary. Where are the tissues? Happy tears are streaming down my face right now.
