Freya can be seen on her back, deep in the land of nod in the sweet snap.

The newborn, who arrived into the world on December 16, looked stylish in an oversized biscuit-coloured jumper, which was rolled up at the sleeves.

The top was paired with stripey white trousers and fur-trimmed boots to keep her cosy in these winter temperatures.

Katherine also shared a story of her baby snoozing while she took her for a trip out of the house to get her nails done.

At the weekend, Katherine uploaded a snap of herself grabbing a few precious moments of sleep with Freya, and partner Bobby was on hand to capture the sweet moment.

The mum-of-three also told fans that her home birth hit a major “glitch”, but ultimately she was able to deliver her daughter at home.

The funny lady recorded a video on Instagram in which she revealed the baby had been born in eldest daughter Violet’s bedroom.

She said: “We did it, harvesting colostrum is the best thing I ever did. I’m using it now because she’s tiny.

“We’ll tell you the whole story on the podcast, but we hit a glitch, a big glitch that delayed things. It was a bit touch and go, but we made it and we got to stay home.”

Colostrum is the first milk mother’s produce and is packed full of nutrients for a newborn.

It can be harvested and stored in a freezer in the months leading up to the birth and is very good for a baby’s immune system.

Katherine’s partner Bobby revealed their daughter Fenna Grace was born in the early hours on Friday.

He shared the happy news on Instagram last week alongside photos of Katherine in labour and a first picture of the tot asleep in her mum’s arms.

Bobby paid tribute to Katherine, 39, after the successful home birth and penned: “Fenna Grace Kootstra
