The post featured a photo of a newborn in a fuzzy blue outfit. The caption was just a blue heart.

On Thursday, Cooper posted a slideshow of photos from her pregnancy.

“The most transformative 9 months of my life,” Cooper wrote in the caption.

In a July post on Instagram, Cooper revealed she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes, which she described as “when the placenta hormones cause insulin resistance — AKA, your pancreas cannot create enough insulin to keep your blood sugar normal.”

At first, Cooper said she was “really hard on myself” about the diagnosis, which she said “felt very isolating.” But ultimately, she said, she just wanted her baby to be healthy.
