Vanderpump Rules alum Stassi Schroeder has welcomed her second child with husband Beau Clark.

Stassi, 35, took to Instagram on Saturday, September 9 to make the big announcement about her newborn son.

"MESSER RHYS CLARK, born at 12:04AM on September 7th, 7 lbs 14 oz, 19.5 inches," the former Bravo star wrote alongside family pictures in Stassi's hospital room post-delivery. "We love him so much already, send prayers Hartford doesn't terrorize him."

Stassi first announced she was pregnant with Baby No. 2 in March.

"Secrets stress me out," the Vanderpump Rules alum captioned a photo that showed off her baby bump and featured her two-year-old daughter Hartford. "Baby #2, I love you so much already."

Beau, meanwhile, wrote alongside the couple's maternity photos, "Yeahhhhhh, we were totally hiding the Bump."

Less than two weeks after sharing her pregnancy news with the world, Stassi revealed that she had a baby boy on the way.

"I knew the whole entire time that we were having a boy," Stassi said on the couple's joint podcast, "The Good the Bad the Baby."

Stassi added, "I kept saying it. I felt it. It was a vibe... I don't know how to f–king explain it."

Stassi told Us Weekly at the time how it's her "fantasy" to have "a sh-t ton of children," a whole "lot of" them.

"But children are really expensive," she noted. "I'm discovering as life goes on -- they're very expensive and I feel like they're the most time-consuming thing in the entire world."

When asked in late March if she could see herself welcoming a third child, Stassi reportedly replied, "When I think about what I want my children's lives to be like, I want to be able to devote so much attention to each of them and give them as much as possible. I'm like, 'If I had a third, how would I give that one as much attention as these other two?'"

"So at this point," Stassi continued, "I feel like two is a great number for me, but never say never because I might wake up one day and decide today's the day. You never know."

Prior to giving birth, Stassi and Beau were on tour together for "Straight Up With Stassi Live."

Stassi wrote on Instagram shortly after revealing she was expecting, "It's been 3 years since we last toured and we're FINALLY hitting the road again!! Needless to say, there's lots to catch up on. PS, I already have 4 different sparkly bump-friendly OOTDs ready to go."

Stassi apparently struggled with the timing of having her second baby.

"I was actually putting off trying to get pregnant because I wanted to go on tour," Stassi admitted, according to Us.

"I was like, 'Okay, 2022 Spring, we're going to finally have our wedding [and] Spring 2023, let's plan for the tour.' And then I thought to myself, 'Well, I really want to get pregnant, but I can't go on tour and not have Aperol spritzes.'"

Stassi elaborated, "[But] then I had this moment where I realized that being pregnant [and] having another kid is what I want more than anything in the world, more than going on tour. And so I was like, 'Actually, this is going to be really fun,' because I feel like I'll be way more focused, I'll be way more motivated."

Stassi pointed out how her touring experience was going to be "completely different" than the first time around.

Stassi and Beau got married in September 2020 in an intimate backyard ceremony amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The Bravo alum -- who has said she's always wanted to be a mom -- became a parent in January 2021 when Hartford was born, and then she and her husband enjoyed a second, more lavish wedding in Italy in 2022.

Stassi and Beau appear to be doing well two months after Hartford was taken to the hospital for "breathing issues.
