"You’re more than I could have ever dreamed of, welcome to the world River," she shared in a sweet Instagram post alongside a photo of the newborn. Her friends, including Katie Maloney and Scheana Shay left messages of love on the post.

Before she gave birth, BravoTV.com caught up with Kristina at the Season 10 premiere party in early February and she opened up about this exciting chapter in her life, which includes becoming a mom and returning to Vanderpump Rules.

"Well, first off I'm pregnant, so this was really hard to do sober. But, besides that, it was really fun," she said of hanging with the Vanderpump Rules inner circle again, this time while expecting. "I have a lot of fun. It's like riding a bike. I feel like I've known all of these people for so long. So it felt sort of normal just to get back into the groove of things, you know?"

She then shared more about her return to Vanderpump Rules and what has changed most in her life since Kristina was last in the show: "Besides the fact that I'm about to give birth? I haven't changed so much. At the end of the day, I feel like I'm a true friend. I'm always there for the girls and I feel like that's why I'm on the show is to really give the good girl advice," she said. "[I give] sound, sound, sober advice this season."

When speaking to BravoTV.com, Kristina opened up about how she was celebrating impending motherhood, which included her baby shower, which was attended by BFF Katie. "It was the most incredible day of my life," she said on the red carpet.

Katie later reflected on the special event. "The most beautiful shower for this beautiful angel!" Katie shared on Instagram about the baby shower. "You’re going to be the most incredible and loving mother." Kristina commented back, "You’re going to be the best Auntie[.] How did we get so lucky[?]"

And, you can bet she was definitely busy in the lead-up to the baby's birth. "We got the nursery going. We're picking out names," she said. She also noted on Instagram, "Motherhood, I’m so excited for you"

Well, it looks like she is well-prepared and feeling overjoyed for her next chapter.
