"Overall summary: mother and baby are fine and in good health."

The post also included a drawing of her family of four that was presumably drawn by her son who is 5½.

Her daughter is her second child with her Dutch-Indonesian businessman husband Nadim van der Ros.

According to her post, the newest addition to their family was born on July 25 at Thomson Medical Centre and weighs 2.79kg.

Sun had turned 40 just two days before giving birth.

In a joint statement sent out by music companies Make/Music and Universal Music Group, they asked for fans and media to give the new mum and family some privacy, reports The Straits Times.

The statement said: "Nadim accompanied Yanzi throughout the delivery and both mother and baby are doing great. Thank you all for your concern and well wishes.

"We would also appreciate if fans and media alike can give Yanzi and her family the privacy they enjoy."
