"There is no better feeling in the world than meeting your daughter. I can't even express the overwhelming joy and love that Bryan and I are feeling," Brie, 33, told E! News in a statement.
"Now we know what parents mean about the love you feel when you first meet your child. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers on the safety of Birdie coming into this world."
Brie, who also stars on Total Bellas with her twin sister Nikki Bella, shared a photo of herself holding little Birdie's foot.
The arrival of Brie's little bundle of joy comes shortly after Nikki accepted an April marriage proposal American Grit host and fellow professional wrestler John Cena at WrestleMania.
Brie first announced she was pregnant back in October 2016.
"It has always been a dream of mine to become a mother," Brie told the website at the time. "Now that it is finally real, it fills me up with so much happiness. I can't wait to see my husband, Bryan, be a father to our child. I am so excited for this new chapter in our lives."
"The day we found out, I just couldn't stop smiling," Bryan added. "We are so excited to be parents. Every time I look at Brie's stomach, I'm amazed that there is a little life in there."
When Brie later found out she and her husband were expecting a girl, she revealed to E! News that she got "really emotional."
"I have such an amazing relationship with my mom and I think, wow, I'm going to have that with my daughter," she had said.
"Also as a woman I now have my own blood to follow my legacy. It's such a special feeling! My mini me!"
