Lucy started the day desperate for her little one to wake up as she shared pictures of the set up.

At the bottom of their stars, the star set up a balloon feature made of pink, green and brown balloons.

Two teddy bears sat on a box beside the cake, which had an icing teddy bear, decorative icing and a number one on the top.

She wrote: "How is my baby boy 1. Thank you for making Romans day extra special @thedecordistrict@elan_cafe"
