The "American Horror Story" alum is dressed in an oversized tangerine dress and heeled sandals while little Rhodes, whose face is turned away from the camera, is swaddled in an ember-colored cloth.

Emma's post was flooded by excited well-wishes from famous friends, including fellow "Scream Queens" alum Taylor Lautner, who spammed her with red heart emojis.

Also flooding Roberts with congratulatory remarks were Reese Witherspoon, Aaron Paul, Rashida Jones, Ashley Tisdale, Billie Lourd and many others.

Roberts' pregnancy was first reported in July after her mother Kelly Cunningham spilled the beans on Instagram. Roberts later called the flub a "disaster" during an October appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

Roberts and Hedlund, 36, were first romantically linked in March 2019.

The "Unfabulous" alum was previously engaged to Evan Peters, her "AHS" co-star. The two mutually ended their seven-year relationship in early 2019.
