And just like that, Amy Schumer's son is 1.
It feels like just yesterday the famous funny lady was taking us along the ride of her pregnancy, often hilariously drawing comparison to Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle as they were expecting at the same time. In fact, Schumer ended up giving birth to her and husband Chris Fischer's first child, Gene, just hours before Archie Harrison's arrival.
"10:55 pm last night," the comedian announced on Instagram on May 6, 2019 before her perfect punchline. "Our royal baby was born."
Now, 12 months later, the star and first-time mom has commemorated her son's 1st birthday in a simply sweet way.
"I'm really glad it was you," she captioned a photo of them napping together. "Hbd."
While the youngster has certainly grown over the last year, that's not the only thing that's different about him these days. Last month, Schumer revealed they had also changed his middle name—but you probably would not have guessed why.
"So do you guys know that Gene, our baby's name is officially changed?" she asked her listeners in an episode of her podcast, Amy Schumer Presents: 3 Girls, 1 Keith. "It's now Gene David Fischer. It was Gene Attell Fischer but we realized that we by accident named our son, 'genital.'"
The minor mishap aside, Schumer has seemingly enjoyed her latest role. "The hype is real. Believe the hype," she told E! News of motherhood six months after he was born. "I'm so lucky."

"Being his mom is heaven on earth and also means a constant feeling of guilt and vulnerability I will never get used to," the star wrote on Instagram in February 2022. "Your heart feels like it's outside your body and you're too old to drink the feelings away like you used to. When you were in love and scared. Send help!!!"

"Happy Pride babies!!!" the comedienne and actress wrote on the day of the NYC LGBT Pride Parade.
Schumer shared the clearest photo of her and Chris Fischer's son on June 29, writing, "Here is our son Gene. He likes looking around and laughing at his toy the black and white butterfly. Always down for a nap and a good cry if the poops are on the reg he wanted me to tell you guys he wants you to volunteer or donate here @immfamtogether."

"Sending out love to the moms shaming me for doing standup last night!" Schumer wrote on Instagram alongside this pumping photo, hours after she was criticized for doing a comedy show, two weeks after her son Gene was born.
"Guys what are we doing tonight? #schumerpump #ootd @stassischroeder," she captioned this Instagram photo, posted two weeks after the birth of her son.
Schumer shows the not-so-glamourous part of giving birth (difficulty going to the toilet, for one) as everyone coos over her newborn in the hospital, in this photo posted on Mother's Day 2019. Many moms, including celebs such as Jenna Fischer and Snooki, praised the star for keeping it real.
"Ok here's my post baby annoying post and my takeaway from pregnancy," Schumer wrote alongside this photo. "Women are the s--t. Men are cool and whatever but women are fucking warriors and capable of anything. I was lucky enough to get to have a doula."
"I did Pilates with strong women and went for walks," she said. "I threw up violently and felt sick mostly every day of my pregnancy. Hyperemesis is real and it's awful. But fuck, what they say is true. The second you give birth it's gone...All my friends. Friends I've had for 30 years or people who encouraged me to "keep going" or telling me "it will be worth it". Thank you. Every woman I encountered is so willing to help and advise you and I felt all their strength. And you were right. Thank you ladies from my family. Chris, Gene and of course Tatiana #titsleaking #wearingadiaper."
"New kid, who dis?" Schumer wrote.
Schumer gave birth to her and husband Chris Fischer's first child, son Gene Attell Fischer, on May 5, 2019. A day later, she shared this touching photo of the two with their "royal baby," who was born hours before Meghan Markle and Prince Harry welcomed their own first child, son Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.
