Lala, 34, posted a black screen with white text over it that read, “Welcome into the world, my love.”
She added, “9.3.24,” in the bottom corner, suggesting that the child was born on Tuesday.
In the background of the post, the moment her daughter was born could be heard.
Heartbeat sounds played over a monitoring system and someone shouted, “Oh my God.”
She did not post any additional information, nor has she shared photos of her baby.
The Vanderpump Rules star revealed that she was expecting another daughter during an Amazon Live show earlier in her pregnancy.
She has not revealed the child’s name at this time.
Lala is already a mom to a daughter named Ocean, 2, whom she shares with ex Randall Emmett.
LALA’S JOURNEY
In January, Lala opened up to People about wanting another child.
She confessed at the time that she was eager to give Ocean a sibling, and believed her eldest daughter would be a great big sister.
“I think Ocean is going to freak out when another baby comes into the mix because she’s obsessed with babies and I think she’s going to be extremely hands-on,” she said at the time.
Asked about her fertility journey, Lala revealed, “We’re into the journey! We’re actually hauling a** full-steam ahead.”
In an interview with Cosmopolitan a few weeks later, she shared that she had begun IUI, or intrauterine insemination, a treatment where sperm is surgically placed into the uterus to fertilize an egg.
As for why she decided to go that route, Lala explained, “When my life went in a very different direction, I knew I wanted more kids.”

Lala documented some of her IUI journey on Vanderpump Rules, revealing on the show that she wanted a second child that was just hers following her shocking split from Randall, 53.
“It was such a strange thing that was happening because everyone would tell me, ‘You’re going to find somebody.’ And I got to thinking, ‘Why does my wanting more children need to involve another person?'” she asked.
Lala used a sperm donor to have her second child.
She shared the news in March in an Instagram post and revealed the baby’s gender in April.
HEALTH SCARE
Earlier this month, Lala opened up about a health scare during an episode of her Give Them Lala podcast.
She said on the show that she was at her baby shower, held in July, at the time.
“My arms and legs went numb, and I could not breathe, and [it] took everything in me to not pass out and just make it to my bed,” Lala recalled.
“I was trying to yell for my mom, but again, I was really struggling, and I was very, very concerned.
“I don’t know what happened. I’ve heard that she could be sitting weird, but I felt this overwhelming amount of guilt because I’ve been complaining a lot about my [body] aching and just wanting it to be done.”
She contacted her doctor, but after shifting her body to a new position, Lala began to feel better.
“And all of a sudden I could breathe. [The baby] was definitely active. I said [to the doctor], ‘She hasn’t stopped moving.’
“And he was like, ‘Oh, OK, I’m less concerned now.'”
Lala’s doctor urged her to stay off her feet, as she confessed, “I think I’ve been overdoing it since [the] second trimester.”
