On her daughter’s first birthday, mother of two Olivia Wilde took to Instagram and revealed to fans that her daughter’s birth did not go as smoothly as she had hoped, admitting that it was complicated.
Daisy is Wilde’s and fiancé Jason Sudeikis second child, sister to Otis who was born in 2014.
The 33-year-old actress posted a picture of herself from the day of Daisy’s birth.
“Daisy’s birth was a little bit complicated and I’m deeply grateful for Sharlene Pope, Dr. Caitlin Fiss, Nurse Helen O’Keeffe, and the whole life-saving team at Mount Sinai hospital in Manhattan. Together we pushed out a gorgeous almost 10 lb baby lady. Let’s hear it for modern medicine. It shouldn’t be reserved for the lucky few. Happy birthday, Daisy girl!”
Wilde later followed that post up with a powerful and heartfelt message to her daughter, writing, “My curious, courageous one, I promise we’ll work hard to make this place better for you and your sisters everywhere. We’ve taken some hits recently, but I believe we are even more determined because of it. We dream of a time when you won’t have to apologize for your brilliance, or sacrifice your self-respect to prove your worthiness. This world is yours, kiddo. We’re just the cleanup crew. I love you. Happy birthday.”
