The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their first child on 6th May and named him Archie.
Meghan celebrated her first Mother’s day with her baby boy on May 12, however, Mother’s day has already taken place on March 22 in the U.K. before Meghan gave birth to baby Archie but it was celebrated in other countries including the U.S. on Sunday.
Meghan and Harry shared a sweet picture of their son on Instagram account, showing Meghan cradling her newborn son’s feet.
The picture also paid tribute to Harry’s late mother Princess Diana as it was taken at their new Frogmore Cottage home in Windsor, and Diana’s favourite flower, forget-me-nots, are visible in the background.
The caption reads, “Paying tribute to all mothers today – past, present, mothers-to-be, and those lost but forever remembered. We honour and celebrate each and every one of you,”
“Today is Mother’s Day in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Kenya, Japan, and several countries across Europe. This is the first Mother’s Day for The Duchess of Sussex,” the post continued. “Quote from ‘lands’: my mother was my first country; the first place I ever lived.”

On this special occasion, Meghan is spending the day with her baby boy alongside Harry and her mom Doria Ragland.
Meghan’s mother Doria reached to her daughter before the Easter holiday to spend time with her and was super excited for baby’s arrival.
“She’s super excited,” a source tells PEOPLE of Ragland in this week’s cover story. “She and Meghan are so close.”
“Harry really gets on well with her too,” another source says. “Any new mom wants her own mom around at this time, so it’s great.”
When Meghan and Harry introduced their child to the world, The Duchess said: “It’s magic. It’s pretty amazing. I have the best two guys in the world, so I’m really happy.”
“He has the sweetest temperament,” she added. He’s really calm.”
Harry then said: “I don’t know where he gets that from!”
“He’s just been a dream,” Meghan said. “It’s been a special couple of days.”
A friend told PEOPLE: “Their home is incredible,”
“There’s so much space for them to be able to take walks with the baby and their dogs and not feel like they are being preyed upon—that was the big thing.
“Meghan’s so happy there compared to Kensington Palace. It’s like night and day. She has her garden set up, and she has where she’s going to plant her flowers—she has a green thumb, so she’s definitely going to be busy with that too.”
