Snooki has introduced her baby son to the world.
The Jersey shore star and her fiancé Jionni LaValle welcomed Lorenzo Dominic LaValle into the world on August 26.
Snooki, who was in labour for more than 24 hours, is delighted with her new bundle of joy. She has debuted Lorenzo to her fans in an exclusive shoot with People magazine.
"It's a different kind of love that I never felt before," she told the publication in the accompanying interview, before Jionni revealed how they came to decide on Lorenzo's Italian name.
"We were going back and forth, and I just happened to think of Lorenzo. She loved it."
The couple are adjusting to parenthood and enjoying spending time with their "adorable" baby.
Snooki was famed for her hard-partying ways on hit MTV show Jersey Shore, but the 24-year-old star says those days are behind her as she embarks on a new path with her new baby and partner.
"When I got pregnant, everything changed. The partying is long gone. I'm a new person," she smiled.
Snooki will appear on the final season of Jersey Shore, which premieres in the US in October. She is also currently filming the second season of her MTV spin-off Snooki & JWoww.
