What a cutie!

The gorgeous Tyla Carr welcomed her first child, baby Archie, on December 13th.

And now, we finally have our first glimpse at the little cutie.

The Love Island star posed alongside her partner, Rossco Edmonds, showing off their lovely little man.

And despite the fact that the couple look over the moon, Tyla admits that her pregnancy wasn’t exactly a walk in the park.

The love I have for this tiny little human being that I can call my Son is so immense! I can’t even begin to tell you how overwhelming it is to write this message, just because it’s me writing about my Son and I haven’t quite come to terms with it all yet! It’s all so crazy and happens so fast! #thankyoumidwife really is such a good cause because without these amazing people, I would have probably given up trying to breast feed and probably would have been home by now feeling a bit lost. They have been in checking on whether I need help with baby latching on and advising me to just stay another night just so that I have all round care again which is so lovely that you don’t feel like cattle or that your being rushed out ASAP. Not to mention my incredible partner @rossco188 for being the most supportive and patient man throughout. (Considering I was such a pansy throughout the whole time of me being in hospital). I’ve found a new type of love for him ? Can’t wait to share the next chapter of my journey with you guys! #newbaby #newborn #love #son #mother

Speaking to OK!, she said:

I’d been leaking fluid so they tested to see if my waters had broken and I had to go for an emergency scan. The nurse phoned the consultant and said: ‘I think her waters are gone. There’s no fluid and he hasn’t grown for two weeks.”

The babies heart rate was rising and falling at an alarming rate, so doctors made the choice to bring her C-Section date forward.

How scary for her?

“It honestly did feel like someone was doing the washing-up in my stomach. You can’t feel pain but you can feel everything else.”

“They held the baby up and when I saw the willy I was like : ‘Oh my God,’ as we were so convinced it was a girl from day one. It was so overwhelming. I held him while they stitched me up. He was so content, it was the most magical moment ever.”

Tyla also revealed that she and Rossco have talked about marriage, but have no immediate plans to tie the knot.

“It’d like to be engaged by the time Archie starts school,” she revealed.
