Due to medical reasons, including a history of delivery complications, Burruss and Tucker decided surrogacy was the safest option to carry their child. Burruss has discussed the mixed emotions that came with not physically carrying their child. But thanks to their surrogate Shadina Blunt, and OB-GYN Dr. Jackie Walters, the process couldn’t have gone smoother.

“I just wanna say thank you sooooo much to @therealdrjackie [and] @shadinablunt for helping us bring our beautiful baby girl in the world,” Burruss wrote in an Instagram post thanking Shadina. “There are no words that can express our gratitude!”

Everybody’s relationship with their surrogate is different but in my case I definitely feel like I gained a new friend. It was team work getting @blazetucker here. In the delivery room we were laughing, dancing, doing what we could to help Shadina through the delivery. Watch & get a good laugh at me & @therealdrjackie’s dance skills. Also if you have questions about surrogacy follow @surrogacymiracles. #DrJackie & #ShadinaBlunt have a plan to help other families who need help or guidance in that area.

We also can’t get enough of the fact that Blaze is her mom’s twin! To prove it, Burruss posted a photo collage of herself as a baby morphing into adult, proving that Blaze definitely has her entire face.

During a recent YouTube video, Burruss explained that her newborn baby girl is a diva who loves to eat. "Honestly, she's ready for another bottle every hour on the hour. She just gulps it up and still wants more."
