"Words can't even express the amount of love we feel for our baby boy Asher," the new mom gushed to Us.
"He has already brought so much joy into our lives in one day. He's strong, healthy, happy, playful and warm. Chris and I are beyond blessed with this beautiful gift of life that we are excited to have as a part our family."
In August, Hartsock and Siegfried revealed the baby's sex. Four months earlier, Hartsock announced she was pregnant with their first child.
Hartsock officially found out she was pregnant during a February vacation with her husband in Maui.
Siegfried proposed to Hartsock during The Bachelorette's Season 9 finale, which was filmed in May 2013 and aired three months later on ABC. The show's star selected the former pro baseball player over runner-up Drew Kenney after getting over the heartbreak of frontrunner Brooks Forester unexpectedly dumping her.
