She also revealed that her path to parenthood was not an easy one.
"This has been a challenging journey to motherhood, not to mention a very long labour, and I'm glad I never gave up," she said before thanking her fertility doctor and others who have supported her.
Kwan noted that although she tends to keep her personal life private, she has wanted to share this happy new for months. "But each milestone seemed to be exciting and daunting at the same time," she wrote. "Each step of the way, I knew that there was still more time needed until I could hold her in my arms."
She also took a moment to send love to "all the moms out there" and wished anyone trying to conceive — whether via IVF, IUUI, surrogacy, adoption, or naturally — both success and love. She wrote: "You're not alone on this path, and I'm pulling for you."
