ET's own Samantha Harris gave birth to her second child, Hillary Madison Hess, on January 19, and we're behind the scenes for Hillary's debut in OK! magazine.
"You forget how snuggly having a newborn in your arms feels," Samantha tells the magazine. "When you have one child that you love so much, you wonder how you could possibly love another as much as the first. Now I know: I think you grow another heart when you have another child."
Samantha and hubby Michael Hess's first daughter, Josselyn Sydney, was born in 2007, and Samantha tells ET that, like Josselyn, she and Michael wanted to wait until the baby was born to find out the sex: "We wanted that experience all over again because there are so few great surprises left in life."
Sleep is always a challenge for a new mother -- especially with Hillary feeding every two to four hours at two weeks -- but Samantha laughs about a special little trait her new little girl has inherited.
"She, like her daddy and her big sister, have a little snoring issue," smiles Samantha. "It definitely makes it hard at night when you want to get some sleep in between feedings. … She's just snoring and making little baby noises."
