Sallie Axl gave birth to Savannah-Blu on Wednesday and shared sweet snaps of her and the little bundle on Instagram. Congratulations!

She captioned the sweet snap: "Today the beautiful; Savannah-Blu was born at 11.28am weighing 5pounds 8 . I have had the most amazing birth with her.

"She is truly beautiful . I would love to say a massive thank you to all the midwifed/doctors . She will be in an incubator till tomorrow but she is completely perfect and has given me and her family so many cuddles [sic].”

And tagging her daughter’s private Instagram account, Sallie added: "Love her the world already . @savannahbluesme [sic]"

In another snap, she referred to Savannah-Blu as her “little auburn princess” – how cute!

Fans were quick to congratulate the Celebrity Big Brother star, taking to Twitter to share the adorable photos.

During her pregnancy, Sallie was VERY excited about becoming a mum for the second time.

Just days before her due date she stripped down to a bikini to show off her tattoos and her bare baby bump.

She captioned the shot: “Only maybe 5 days left before I see you…

“Embracing my bump, I actually love it.”

However, in a second post, Sallie also let slip that she’s already picked out a beautiful name for her little girl.

She wrote simply: “Not long now till I meet you Savannah-Blu.”

What a gorgeous and unique name choice, eh?

A place name with a deep Southern accent, the beautiful moniker ‘Savannah’ originally hails from Spain and means ‘from the open plain’.

Combined with the monosyllabic ‘Blu’, it sounds truly magical.

Sallie also shared several photos from her baby shower, including her party platter and the classic 'What's In The Baby's Nappy' game.

The star is already mum to 5-year-old Nirvana.

Sallie previously revealed that she had been hospitalised very close to her baby’s due date, after being diagnosed with a liver condition.

She said: “I have OP which means my liver can’t cope with being pregnant, getting steroid injections today and tomorrow to strengthen the baby’s lungs for premature labour.

“So scary but the staff at Whiston hospital are amazing. Only 30 weeks so been so stressed just want everything to be ok and baby to be healthy.

We can understand why the reality star is so nervous about her pregnancy, as she suffered a traumatic miscarriage last year.

Taking to Facebook, the glamour model wrote: “When I woke up in a blood-stained bed and gown it took days for the nurses to change them, leaving me in the remainders of the miscarriage and blood all over the floor.

"There was no compassion and one nurse referred to my unborn child as a 'IT' talking about getting her tested and speaking about taking a slithering off my baby.

"This should not happen to women who lose their unborn children!! I should NOT have been left to take my dead child home in a plastic bag!”

She added: “Thank God I have my beautiful daughter Nirvana to see me through these times. NHS you should be ashamed!!"
