Paloma Faith gives birth to baby girl via C-section as she shares adorable first pictures

PALOMA Faith has given birth to a baby girl via C-section as she shares adorable first pictures.

The 39-year-old singer took to Twitter on Sunday evening to reveal the happy news alongside two pictures; one of her lying in the operating theatre and the other of her newborn's feet.

She wrote alongside the sweet snaps: "Pregnancy diary: Well I’m not pregnant anymore!

"I had a planned c section yesterday I’m in a lot of pain and didn’t sleep last night but it’s worth it to see and meet the new little cherub I have infront of me.

"It’s been about 30 hours and already I’m Exhausted, sore and my nipples are on fire with a baby piranha that wants to kill me on them every few hours but I am of course elated!"

She continued in her tweets: "This baby couldn’t be more loved or wanted if she tried (yes I have two gals).

"I’m now going through the constant worry of bottle vs breast, last time I breast fed exclusively and I think it was too hard!

"I don’t know if I wana put myself through that this time..... but I’m trying anyway. And my nipples are on fire. Lost a litre of blood and I’m in so much pain despite the pain killers. The joys!"

Paloma revealed she was pregnant with her second child back in September after six rounds of IVF with her partner Leyman Lahcine.

The couple already have a three-year-old daughter together.

Sharing an emotional post on Instagram at the time Paloma wrote: "This child is so wanted, it's my 6th round of IVF and was a struggle to get here."

She added: "I had a very traumatic first birth and I also am prone to post partum depression.

"Being a mother is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me but I will swell up and I won't 'glow'!"
