Lisa Wipfli dotes on newborn daughter Francesca as she shares candid photos from the delivery room


On Wednesday, she and husband Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli announced the birth of their third child, daughter Francesca Vera Alice. 

And on Thursday, besotted mother Lisa Wipfli doted on her newborn in hospital. 

Lisa shared a sweet video of Francesca during a feed and other candid photographs from the delivery room, after a nurse tried to stop Wippa from entering the birthing suite due to the coronavirus pandemic.

In the clip, Lisa enjoyed a face mask and relaxed in a pair of black pyjamas as she held her tiny tot, who was wrapped up in a white blanket.  

‘Baby bubble bliss and making the hospital feel like a day spa with a Go-To skincare mask,’ Lisa wrote  on her Instagram story, with her friend Zoe Foster-Blake being the founder of the brand. 

The brunette also shared pictures from the delivery room, shortly before she gave birth.

Lisa also shared a photo of herself being wheeled into the delivery room, presumably for a c-section.

‘This is the face of a very excited mum about to meet her baby girl,’ Lisa wrote on her Instagram story. 

Another photo showed Lisa and Wippa in their hospital scrubs. 

‘Scrub selfie,’ the post was captioned.

The pair announced the birth of their daughter on Wednesday, sharing an adorable snap of the newborn sleeping. 

‘Welcome into this crazy world Francesca Vera Alice Wipfli. You complete our family and in the one day you’ve been on this planet you’ve brought more love and joy to our hearts than I thought possible,’ Lisa wrote online. 

Wippa revealed on Wednesday’s Fitzy and Wippa that a nurse was hesitant to let him into the birthing suite with his wife after having contact with TV host, Richard Wilkins, who has tested positive for COVID-19.

‘We’re about to wheel her into the surgery where all the doctors are waiting, and then this Irish nurse says, ‘Stop everything! There’s a note here (that says) I’ve got to ask this question: You’ve been in touch with Richard Wilkins. Who is Richard Wilkins and why is he important?” he recalled.

Luckily for Wippa, he tested negative for COVID-19 last week after the entire Nova team underwent testing on March 15 as a precaution.

Richard, a Weekend Today star, had appeared on their show as a guest on Thursday, March 12 and soon after tested positive for COVID-19. 

Wippa and Lisa also share two sons together, Theodore, four, and Jack, three.

As of Thursday afternoon, there are 2,675 confirmed cases of coronavirus and 12 deaths.
