Chrissy and husband John Legend welcomed their baby girl on 14 April

"I am conscious of what people want to see and what they don't want to see, or what they see through completely," the then-pregnant star told People in March. "We're not going to go out of our way to hide because obviously it's such a big part of our lives to show everything: the inside of our homes, my parents living with us, our animals, everything. I'm not going to do sneaky back shots of her or anything. "But she admitted there was one aspect of social media she was hesitant about. "I'm not ready for people's comments," she explained. "That's more of what it is. . . . It's not like I don't want to show her or that I'm hiding."

The star returned to social media on Sunday after a brief hiatus

Chrissy returned to Twitter on Sunday after a brief hiatus, joking, "to everyone asking, John is healing perfectly. "Shortly afterwards, she added: "Thank you for all the well wishes!! We are so happy and excited! I dunno what to tweet now. Does my twitter change? This is so awkward."
