Madison LeCroy Shares Emotional Update on Baby Teddi Amid NICU Stay — and the Beautiful Meaning Behind Her Name

Madison LeCroy offered an update on her premature daughter, Teddi, on Instagram after she arrived several weeks ahead of her due date on June 29.

In a series of new posts shared to her Instagram Story on Monday, the 34-year-old Southern Charm star revealed how her baby girl is doing in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) while also posting a family photo of husband Brett Randle, 38, and son Hudson, 12, and explaining the heartwarming meaning behind her daughter’s name.

“Update on baby Teddi: She’s still in the NICU and we’re still here with her, but she’s doing great. Taking her bottles, gaining weight, and right on track for where she should be. Our little preemie angel is getting stronger every day we can’t wait to bring her home,” Madison wrote in the caption of a July 7 post that included a photo of Hudson holding Teddi with her beside him.

In the photo that followed, Madison joked, “I feel a family hair commercial in our future,” as she included another look at Hudson holding Teddi, but this time, with Brett beside him.

She then shared a throwback photo from her and Brett’s November 2022 wedding in which she was seen dancing with her late father, whom Teddi is named after.

“Her name carries his. His love carries us. I know he’s watching over our girl,” she wrote in the caption.

After welcoming daughter Teddi, Madison spoke to Us Weekly about going into labor when Brett was out of town, working in California. She shared that she “prolonged the labor” to make sure he’d be present when their baby girl arrived.

“We waited another day and had the C-section,” Madison recalled.

Continuing on, Madison said Teddi weighed in at just five pounds. 

“She’s breathing on her own and hasn’t needed any oxygen or anything like that. She’s kind of a little trooper,” Madison stated. “[Doctors] were shocked with how early she was that she was gonna be this independent. So I was like, ‘Oh, I wasn’t shocked at all.’”

Southern Charm season 11 is currently in production and expected to begin airing on Bravo sometime later this year or early next year.
