The singer took to Twitter to announce the news over the weekend - and revealed her cute choice of baby name:
"Our baby girl River Rose Blackstock arrived on June 12th!" she said.
"Thank you everyone for all of your well wishes! Brandon and I are on cloud 9!!"
Clarkson found out she was having a girl before the baby was born - but before that, she kind of predicted she was expecting a girl:
"I'm totally gonna have a girl. I'm manifesting it! And when I have a girl, you're gonna be like, 'That chick knew it!' " she said back in November.
Speaking about her baby name choice, Clarkson told TV talk show host Ellen Degeneres during her pregnancy that the name would stay the same whatever the sex of the baby:
"Honestly, the name we've picked, if it's a boy or a girl, it's the same name...You won't guess it. It's a random name. But it's not like … 'Blue Jazz.' It's not going to be a weird name."
We'd say River Rose is still pretty unique, Kelly, but still, congrats!
ON TUESDAY 21 JANUARY 2014 WE WROTE...
Congratulations to Kelly Clarkson and Brandon Blackstock, they are having a baby girl.
And where did she announce this exciting news? Why, Twitter of course. The global superstar took to the social networking site to announce the happy news to her fans.
We wonder whether Kelly will have another reason to celebrate at the weekend, she is up for a GRAMMY Award, after all. This Sunday we will see whether Kelly wins the gong for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for her collaboration on Don't Rush.
But if Kelly doesn't win on Sunday, perhaps she could pack it all in and write self-help books on how to deal with a first time pregnancy. We'd buy it, but only if there was a chapter titled 'God Bless Potatoes'.

The American Idol champ is expecting her first child with husband Brandon Blackstock.
The singer confirmed the news on Twitter yesterday, posting an enthusiastic: "I'm pregnant!!!"
"Brandon and I are so excited! Best early Christmas present ever," she added.
The confirmation may not come as much of a surprise to many, as Kelly has been more than a little vocal about her desires to reproduce for a while now.
"More than anything, next I want a baby. Lots of them," she told US Magazinebefore she wed Blackstock in October.
"My record label is freaking out because all I can talk about now are babies. We're really excited and want to get our family started.
"I'm 31 and we'd like to do it the natural way. My eggs aren't getting any younger! So we're really excited."
"[Brandon] has two kids that I love and they are cool with it. We got the A-OK from them so we are ready to go. That's definitely the next big project we're going to start on."
In a coy but also MASSIVE TMI moment on Jay Leno last week, Clarkson played down baby speculation talk, telling the chat show host she wasn't planning on "announcing anything right now"… Before adding that she and her husband were going at it "like rabbits" in the meantime.
"[We want a baby] like now! Practice makes perfect!" she told Leno, laughing. "We do, we do. We're trying, trying, trying. We have two kids, and they're so great. And I never wanted kids before, but now I want, like, five."
So, there you have it. Clarkson = pregnant. Congrats.

He is the face of terror. A ruthless leader with a twisted ideology. And the sadistic architect of a campaign of mayhem and misery. And yet, very little is known about Abubakar Shekau, the leader of Boko Haram. He operates in the shadows, leaving his underlings to orchestrate his repulsive mandates. He resurfaces every once in a while in videotaped messages to mock the impotence of the Nigerian military. And he uses his faith to recruit the impressionable and the disenfranchised to his cause. He is a religious scholar Shekau was born in Shekau village that borders Niger. He studied under a cleric and then attended Borno State College of Legal and Islamic Studies for higher studies on Islam. That’s why he’s also known as ‘Darul Tawheed,’ which translates to an expert in monotheism, or the oneness of Allah. Place of birth: Yobe State
The KUTWK star has a curvy bum, and also know how to use it - check out our gratuitous gallery of her sexy bottom Kim Kardashian has a MASSIVE BUM in case you had somehow missed it, although we doubt you have. And even if you’re like our nan who’s so bad with technology that she doesn’t know how to turn on a computer, you will have seen it anyway because it’s so big it’s basically in our peripheral vision at all times.
