It seems like every week, the Dancing with the Stars family is expanding, whether it's through new additions to the hosts and judges, pregnancy announcements, or births. And DWTS fans were treated to the latter recently as Daniella Karagach posted the first photos of her newborn daughter with husband (and fellow pro) Pasha Pashkov.

In a post captioned "A week with Nikita," she posted a series of photos of the new family's time in the hospital following her giving birth on May 30. The pics showcase not only the trio in the hospital, but also shots of Pasha holding the baby in their new home. Karagach later revealed Nikita's middle name in her Instagram stories: Sofia. It's a nod to her grandmother who passed away last year, who also has the same middle name.

The dancing couple announced that they were having a baby back in November. Karagach told People, "We've wanted a family ever since we've gotten married and we've been married for eight and a half years, so we are more than ready to have a baby." She discovered she was pregnant on the premiere day of Dancing with the Stars' 31st season, which she and Pasha both competed on alongside Joseph Baena and Teresa Giudice, respectively.

With the DWTS family expanding, it's only logical that they responded to the birth announcement with an outpouring of support. "Thank you for sharing these moments mama," wrote Sharna Burgess. "She is perfect and her rolls are divine ❤️."

Similar messages came from fellow pros Witney Carson, Lindsay Arnold, Jenna Johnson, Emma Slater, and Sasha Farber. Many of whom have already brought (or are currently bringing) children into the dancing family. Carson, Arnold, and Johnson have all announced that they are pregnant and have due dates scattered across the year.

Karagach and Pashkov started as dance partners back in 2009, becoming seven-time United States 10-Dance Champions and Latin Champions in the process. The two began to start a relationship off the dance floor, eventually marrying on July 18, 2014. Pashkov started in the main DWTS in season 28 back in 2019, with Karagach beginning in the dance troupe. She moved up the next year and quickly made a name for herself, making it to finale night with Nelly. She did even better the next season when she won the coveted Mirrorball Trophy with Iman Shumpert, the only NFL player to make it a finale, let alone win, in the series' history.

It's unknown as to whether Karagach will be moving from baby booties to dancing shoes and appearing on DWTS when it returns to both ABC and Disney+ this fall. If not, she would opting out alongside several of the other aforementioned pros due to either their pregnancies or recent births of their children.
