"Kanye and I are happy to announce the arrival
of our healthy, beautiful baby girl," Kardashian said in a
message on her app.
The couple thanked the unidentified surrogate "who made our
dreams come true with the greatest gift one could give."
They said the baby was born on Monday but they did not announce
a name.
Kardashian, 37, and West are already parents to North, 4, and
Saint, 2. The "Keeping Up with the Kadashians" reality and
social media star has said she decided to use a surrogate after
doctors warned of serious health risks if she became pregnant
again.
Kardashian has given detailed accounts on her blog about the
difficulties she experienced during her two labors.
Two of Kardashian's sisters are also expecting babies. Khloe
Kardashian, 33, announced in December that she is six months
pregnant with her basketball player boyfriend Tristan Thomas,
while their half-sister Kylie Jenner, 20, is reported to be
expecting her first child soon.
The arrival of Kardashian and West's third child swiftly became
on of the top five trending topics on Twitter.
