Brittany Matthews is settling into motherhood.
Matthews, 25, shared a glimpse at her postpartum recovery process — and new mom life! — curled up in bed with one of her dogs, smiling while petting the pup and snuggling up close. "How it's going 🤣," she wrote with the Instagram Story update.
Matthews and fianceé Patrick Mahomes welcomed their first child, daughter Sterling Skye, on Saturday and announced the happy news on Instagram Sunday, sharing a photo of the newborn holding her parents' fingers. Matthews also wore a necklace with the baby girl's name on it.
"Sterling Skye Mahomes 👸🏼 2/20/21 6lbs 11oz," Matthews captioned her post.
Earlier on Saturday, Matthews wrote on Instagram, "Ready to meet you baby girl 💕," while sharing a gallery of maternity photos. Then on Monday, the new mother wrote: "When I thought I knew love. Then I saw your face for the first time. ✨ #SterlingSkye"
