Saturday Night Live alum Cecily Strong is a mom! The comedian took to Instagram today to announce the birth of her first baby with her fiance Jack. The couple welcomed their baby on April 2nd.
In her birth announcement, the actress shared a picture of her lying in bed with her baby in a bassinet beside the bed, and even included her dog Lucy lying on the floor. She began her post by referencing the three of them and revealing her baby’s sex. It’s a girl! “Me and my girls.” Cecily did not share the baby name for daughter.
Cecily gushed about becoming a mom in her post caption, including a few jokes along the way. “It’s been a week and a day with my beautiful squirmy baby girl. I recognize all her little squirms and kicks from when she was on the other side of me and now I get to say ‘see what I was talking about!’ She makes Robert Deniro faces and snorts when she is super determined on the boob. She’s gonna be stronger than me in about a week. Her squeaks and sighs are my favorite noises on earth. Born with a full head of dark hair which made me scream ‘whoo hoo!’ while pushing. And I’ve been screaming Whoo hoo every day since because she’s absolutely perfect and I won the lottery.”
The “Schmigadoon!” star went on to praise her partner, who she got engaged to in December 2023, sharing that he is, “the best dad I could ever have imagined (he is a diapering/swaddling/bottle washing/breakfast cooking/medicine picker upper/tech support with Baby Brezza handling/dog cuddling so she never feels left out/breastfeeding and pumping helping pro and is at this moment wearing the baby and listening to classical music for babies) and best partner I could have imagined (this man hand fed me crispy rice from Blue Ribbon Sushi in the hospital).”
Congratulations to Cecily and Jack on the birth of their baby girl!
