Kelly Clarkson has shared the first picture of her daughter River Rose.

The songstress uploaded the professionally-shot photo to her Instagram.

The proud mum captioned the snap: "Here is our beautiful baby girl River Rose. 6lbs 6oz, 18 inches, and the greatest thing on the planet."

The American Idol winner gave birth last Thursday (12 June).

She shared with fans on Twitter that she and husband Brandon Blackstock were on "cloud 9" following their new arrival.

The singer had been candid about her struggles during her pregnancy, admitting in an interview with Ellen DeGeneres that she suffered extreme morning sickness.

"I vomit a good dozen times a day," she revealed to the chat show host last December.

"I'm not even kidding, it's so so bad. It's so bad. I know it's like so gross. And that's the thing, too - you're not attractive when you're pregnant."

Kelly was reportedly planning to release her sixth studio album before she discovered she was pregnant last year.

Producer Jesse Shatkin revealed that he had been in the studio with the singer, and that the material they had recorded was "a little left-of-centre and cool" compared with her previous records.

We come into this world unknown
But know that we are not alone
They try and knock us down
But change is coming, it's our time now

Hey, everybody loses it
Everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes
And hey, yeah I know what you're going through
Don't let it get the best of you, you'll make it out alive

Oh, people like us we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up, nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom

Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

Hey, this is not a funeral
It's a revolution, after all your tears have turned to rage
Just wait, everything will be okay
Even when you're feeling like it's going down in flames

Oh, people like us we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom

Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
You've just gotta turn it up loud when the flames get higher
Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

They can't do nothing to you, they can't do nothing to me
This is the life that we choose, this is the life that we bleed
So throw your fists in the air, come out, come out if you dare
Tonight we're gonna change forever

Everybody loses it
Everybody wants to throw it all away sometimes

Oh, people like us we've gotta stick together
Keep your head up nothing lasts forever
Here's to the damned, to the lost and forgotten
It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom

Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
We are all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
You've just got to turn it up loud when the flames get higher
Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
We're all misfits living in a world on fire
Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us

Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
You've just got to turn it up loud when the flames get higher
Oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh
Sing it for the people like us, the people like us
