"#PapaBear thank you so very much for choosing me to be your mama," she wrote on Instagram, in a six-photo post with shots of her son. The 3-month-old, whose name is still unknown to the public, is seen wearing "Papa Bear" bling in the pictures.
The rapper's caption continued: "Wishing you guys a happy & prosperous New Year. Thank you for your love & support throughout this journey. It's meant so much to me.
"Becoming a mom is by far the most fulfilling job I've ever taken on. Sending love to all the superhero mothers out there. Big hugs to all the women who have been pregnant during this challenging time."
Nicki Minaj and her husband had their first child in 2020
Minaj's 126 million Instagram followers were overjoyed at the new photos. Previously, she had shared only a picture of her son's foot. But fans are now well-acquainted with the little one, who was born on Sept. 30, 2020.
Minaj tied the knot with her husband, Kenneth Petty, in 2019 and the newborn is their first child together. Earlier in 2020, she also defended her husband against critics of his behaviour during a Carnival in Trinidad.
