Shortly after Brie’s announcement, her twin sister Nikki revealed she has also given birth to her first child with fiancé Artem Chigvintsev.

Nikki, who was due two weeks later than Brie, welcomed her son a day earlier than her sister, on July 31. 

‘Our baby boy is here and we couldn’t be HAPPIER and more in LOVE! Everyone is safe and healthy,’ the new mom announced. 

Ahead of her son’s arrival, Brie said she wasn’t putting any pressure on herself.

The former wrestler has said that whilst she’s desperate to ‘have a vaginal birth’ after welcoming Birdie via C-section, she’s trying not to get her hopes up just in case she’s ‘let down’.  

She said: ‘Birdie came in through an emergency C-section, so I was really disappointed. 

‘I definitely got over it because I looked at the bigger picture: my baby is alive and healthy. And I can’t ask for more than that. 

‘But I’m trying not to put pressure on this pregnancy because this is my last shot. You know, I’m only having two kids, and I really do want to have a vaginal birth.

‘I wanna, like, push the baby out and then hold it. I don’t wanna be cut open. Which is fine if I am, but I’m not trying to have high hopes because I don’t want to be let down.’

Brie’s twin sister Nikki echoed her concerns about surgery, but said she was ‘open to changes and possibilities’. 

She responded: ‘Goodness, from where we’re at right now – you and I going into labor, not knowing the birth plan that’s gonna be handed to us, dealing with COVID-19, an election year, so many things – I think we all need to be open to changes and possibilities. We all need to let go of expectations because we don’t know what tomorrow’s gonna bring.’

Brie made an appointment for a C-section on August 1 with the hope that she would go into labor and deliver her baby naturally before then. 

In January the twins revealed they were both pregnant at the same time, with brie telling PEOPLE: ‘My husband and I were trying for seven or eight months, but then I felt in my heart it was a sign from God, like, “You guys are good with one,” so we stopped trying,’

During the latest season of their E! series Total Bellas, Bryan said they wanted to keep the sex of their baby on the way a ‘surprise,’ saying, ‘We don’t really want to know the gender.’
