As part of a Q & A she took part in on Instagram, Tori was asked the truth about Josiah’s birth story.
The 31-year-old at first responded: “I mean, it was pretty straight-forward. LOL.
“Water Broke. Went in for C Section. Had bab 3 hours later.”
But then she admitted the problems arose after her special delivery.
“Postpartum this time around was the wild part,” she shared in a different subject box.
“We share some of it on LPBW, but it was a super emotional time.
“I was so grateful for my mama and our docs/nurses in the hospital.”
NIGHT ONE
Last month, Tori went into greater detail about the birth, and candidly opened up about her postpartum experience, revealing that she has been struggling.

The reality star shared with fans that things got so bad, in fact, that she almost “called 911” after returning home from the hospital.
On Mother’s Day, Tori, 31, shared a lengthy and raw post on her Instagram Story.
The TLC star wrote: “I’ve gotten a lot of messages about how quickly I bounced back.
“I’m all about keeping it real: you see the best moments on Instagram.”
She continued: “You see when we’re feeling our best.
“The recovery was so intense in the beginning. The hospital was an actual nightmare (not because of the hospital but just events that transpired) and I’m so thankful for all the help we got.”
Tori went on: “Everyone kept telling my after the fact how hard c section #3 is… they’re right. I don’t remember pain like that!
“My pain was so bad the first night home we almost called 911.”
Her message concluded: “Luckily I was able to get on track with medication after that.”
In a second slide she told fans: “So yes: I am finally getting back with it and feeling good!
“Thank goodness. But it hasn’t been easy!”
The mom of three urged followers: “Don’t compare yourself to instagram.”
She added: “Thankfully Josiah is the actual easiest baby. He’s been so chill and calm through everything we’ve gone through in the last week.”
ONE MONTH DOWN
Tori and husband Zach are now happily celebrating the one-month birthday of Josiah.
On Instagram, the Little People, Big World stars shared some adorable snaps of their son, along with a message of love.
In the first photo, Josiah lies spread out on a blanket with numbers 1-12 printed on it, to keep track of his growth over his first year.
The “number one” is circled, as the child lays to the side.
The second photo is a bit goofier, featuring the baby sticking his tongue out and looking at the camera.
This time he is laying next to a wooden sign that says “1 month old.”
She captioned the photo: “How has it already been a month with this dude?!
“We have LOVED getting to know and love this kid, and I really do thank God every day He chose us to be his parents!”
Tori then added a “wrap up” of the first month:
“Josiah LOVES to eat and has yet to miss a meal. He loves his siblings and is so tolerant to their exuberant attention.
“Si (his apparent nickname) is starting to appreciate bath time! Josiah has longer moments of alertness and he loves to look at his family!
“He has outgrown NB clothes already!
“Nights aren’t the best but mom is trying really hard to enjoy every moment and consume extra coffee.”
She concluded the note with a message of love and laughter: “We love you Josiah!! Also ps. Thank second photo! Kid got moms extra chins and I’m herrrreeee for it.”
