'The View' co-hosts cheered on their fellow panelist as she went into labor.
"I'm due February 19, but my doctor expects he'll arrive slightly early, so it's keeping me on my toes," Griffin dished recently on the ABC morning show. "I'm ready for any scenario, really."
Griffin announced she was expecting in October 2025 and previously discussed her issues with fertility. She had been trying for two years before her pregnancy and underwent five rounds of IVF.
“Baby Griffin is on the way and we’re just so excited — and terrified,” she told People last year. “I’m so excited to be a boy mom, even though I’ll be outnumbered at home because we have two male dogs.”

Alyssa Farrah Griffin announced her pregnancy last October.
She added that she's hoping to have another child in the future, and “always liked the idea of a big brother looking out for the younger siblings.”
While doing IVF, Griffin received an endometriosis diagnosis, which put a strain on her ability to carry children and conceive.
“I went undiagnosed my whole life until I started this process,” she told the publication. “So that just added to the complications.”
