“As all of you know, I have very strong boundaries with social media, especially when it comes to children and what I choose to put out into the world. I wanted to share first so I can say thank you in advance for honoring those boundaries and for sending positivity, kindness and LOVE.”
Reed went on to thank her midwife and doctors “for helping to gently guide this sweet boy into the world.”
“Meanwhile I’m here getting pooped and peed on but let’s pretend life is glamorous for a second ;)” she teased, adding, “Although truth be told, I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Thank you thank you to this incredible human for the gift of life and love, for being the most incredible mom and working so hard to make dreams come true!!!”
