On Thursday, Sept. 12, the actress, 39, shared a post about the realities of welcoming a newborn after welcoming her second baby with husband Christopher French earlier this month.
Sharing a snap of herself in a maternity room while in labor, Tisdale — who welcomed daughter Emerson Clover on Sept. 6 — wrote on her Instagram Stories, “@buddywporter did my blow out the night before my labor, I was like ‘I want to look good when this baby comes out.’”
“But of course we never know how labor is gonna go and after having to do rotating positions to keep the baby’s heart rate up, I put my hair in a bun and then threw up on myself,” she continued alongside a laughing face emoji. “So let’s just be real and not try so hard sometimes lol.”
