While Hudgens did not reveal any details about the new addition to her family, she did share that she popped a blood vessel in her eye during labor. The Caliwater co-founder posted a selfie seemingly post-labor that revealed a blood vessel had burst in one of her eyes.
“Labor. Poppin out babies and blood vessels loooool,” she wrote over the photo, above.

“How I feel. Very grateful. Very happy. And (not pictured) very tired lol happy thanksgiving everyone ❤️,” she captioned the photo, below. “I hope everyone had a lovely day in gratitude.”
