The 38-year-oldphotographed the five-day-old baby as he snuggled up under a cozycream blanket and slept sweetly. As is tradition in the Swedishroyal family, the young boy was dressed in a lace blouse that was madeby Victoria's grandmother, Alice Sommerlath.

Perhaps the Swedish royal has taken inspiration from The Duchess of Cambridge and Jetsun Pema, The Queen of Bhutan, who chose to release personal photos of their children, instead of using a professional photographer.

Princess Madeleine,the prince's aunt, was also keen to post a photo of her new nephew.The 33-year-old shared a candid photo of the little boy surrounded bymother, father and sister, Princess Estelle, as they left theKarolinska hospital in Stockholm less than 24 hours after Victoriagave birth, on March 2 at 8:28 p.m.
