Fans were calling the baby Vinny 3.0, following in the footsteps of the show’s Vincent ‘Vinny’ Guadagnino<\/a> and Angelina Pivarnick<\/a>‘s ex Vinny Tortorella, who was nicknamed Vinny 2.0.<\/p>\n

“VINNY 3.0,” one fan commented. <\/p>\n

“CUTIE CONGRATS.”<\/p>\n

“Anyone else Waiting for Vinny\u2019s comment about the name,” another wrote. <\/p>\n

The baby, wearing a blue hat with his name and a shirt reading, “Hi, I’m new here,” was born at 8:18 p.m., and weighed 8 pounds, 4 ounces.<\/p>\n

“Welcome to the family baby,” co-star Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi commented.<\/p>\n

“So happy for you !!! He\u2019s beautiful,” another Jersey Shore alum, Deena Buckner, wrote. <\/p>\n

Giancola<\/a> has been open about her struggles with infertility in the past, revealing last year that she had undergone IVF treatment. <\/p>\n

“After struggling through years of infertility, this is the absolute greatest blessing we could ever possibly ask for,” she wrote on Instagram when she announced her pregnancy.<\/p>\n

“We are so thrilled to finally be able to share the news of our little miracle with you all!”<\/p>\n

On a Jersey Shore<\/a> episode, Sammi had said that she suffered a miscarriage<\/a>, but that her fianc\u00e9 supported her the entire way.<\/p>\n

“The thought of even being pregnant \u2026 such a magical moment for me.<\/p>\n

“To have that taken away \u2014 it\u2019s devastating for me.”<\/p>\n

A rainbow baby is a term used for children born after a pregnancy loss. <\/p>\n

Sammi and Justin got engaged<\/a> in March 2024. <\/p>\n

“He\u2019s so special to me, and I just am so thankful for him,” she said of Justin.<\/p>\n

“He\u2019s been by my side through this whole thing. I just love him.”<\/p>\n

“Sammi, we all know how much you’ve wanted this for so long,” commented one user on the post.<\/p>\n

“I’m so happy to see your dream come true.”<\/p>\n
