Madison LeCroy Is ‘Already Planning’ for 3rd Baby Days After Daughter’s Birth, Giving Her Body ‘Grace’

   

Exclusive | Madison LeCroy on her excitement over becoming a girl mom after  giving birth

After giving birth to her daughter last week, Madison LeCroy revealed that baby No. 3 is now on her brain.

“I’m already, like, planning the third,” LeCroy, 34, exclusively told Us Weekly after welcoming daughter Teddi on Sunday, June 29. “I’m like, ‘We gotta do this again.’ This is so fun.”

The Southern Charm star announced her baby girl Teddi’s arrival during a Wednesday, July 3, Amazon Livestream sponsored by Graco. She also shared exclusive details about her delivery with Us, revealing Teddi was born healthy at 34 weeks after 48 hours of labor.

While it was a long process, LeCroy said she felt “good” the whole time as she waited for her husband, Brett Randle, to fly in from California.

“We watched everything and just kind of hung out,” she recalled. “It’s actually been really relaxing and nice, and I think if it would’ve been this easy the first time, I would’ve had, like, five kids.”

 

LeCroy’s experience with Teddi was much more seamless than her delivery with eldest child Hudson, whom she welcomed with ex-husband Josh Hughes in November 2012. (LeCroy previously told Us that she suffered a pelvic fracture with Hudson, which played into her choice to deliver Teddi via C-section.)

Welcoming her second child was even more exciting after seeing how Hudson, 12, reacted to meeting his baby sister.

“Hudson comes in and he’s like, ‘Mom, you did it.’ And I was like, ‘Oh, no, she’s not here yet. I haven’t done anything yet,’” LeCroy said with a laugh. “So he was already congratulating me before she even got here.”

Once her little one had arrived, the reality star said she was surprised to see Hudson was “already more protective than I thought he would be.”

LeCroy noted that Teddi’s one-week stay in the NICU, which was just “protocol,” until she hit 35 weeks, “kind of scared him a little bit,” and he hesitated at the thought of carrying her when she was so small.

“Seeing how tiny she was and things like that, he was like, ‘Oh, I don’t know if I’m ready to hold her yet.’ I was like, ‘Oh, you’ll be fine,’” she recalled. “So [I] just kind of [was] breaking him into it. But I think that he’s gonna be just the best big brother. She’s very lucky to have him.”

LeCroy, for her part, is focused on all the small moments herself and not worrying about her post-baby body.

“I try not to look down too, too much,” she teased, explaining that her body has “definitely changed” following the C-section.

The hairstylist revealed, “I will say it’s not as bad as I thought it was gonna be. I definitely am gonna give myself grace and time with this because I have no desire [to bounce back].”

LeCroy then confessed, “Like, deep down in my mind I was like, ‘OK, I’m gonna hop back on the diet as soon as I have her. Like, you know, day two.’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah, right.’”

Since giving birth and holding her baby girl, LeCroy said she’s decided to “soak up this maternity leave and embrace, you know, being at home in bed and cuddling with her.”

She teased that her physical transformation “will come later on,” teasing, “I’ll bounce back for BravoCon [and] I’ll share the plan.”
