Snooki says daughter Giovanna Marie is “perfect”.

The former Jersey Shore star welcomed her second child with fiancé Jionni LaValle at 4.28 on Friday morning.

And shortly after the birth, which was filmed for her reality show Snooki & JWoww, Snooki took to Twitter to reveal her happiness over the new arrival.

Confirming the name of the little girl, Snooki tweeted: “So happy to let you know we had our beautiful daughter this morning Giovanna Marie LaValle. 6.7 lbs, full head of black hair & perfect.”

On Thursday, the 26-year-old took to her blog to complain about having to wait for her little one to arrive.

"Guess what, I’m still freaking pregnant. Omg! I can’t deal with this anymore. I feel like I’m going to be pregnant forever. This time when I was pregnant with Lorenzo, I had already given birth so I’m aready a step behind," she lamented in the post.

"I gave birth to Lorenzo two weeks and two days early! I feel like I am I going to be overdue. I’m at that point where I can’t move, I can’t sleep, I’m waking up 20 times throughout the night, rolling out of bed, waddling to the bathroom and prayng that my mucus plug falls out and my water breaks and I’m just ready to go at this point. (sic)"

She's been keeping active, helping with her house move to get the birth going. The star has also been researching tricks for inducing labour, and now it seems something must have worked.

"I tried eating spicy food, now that’s a lot for me because I hate spicy food," she explained.

Snooki and Jionni are also parents to two-year-old son Lorenzo.
