Tina Fey has become a mother for a second time.

According to People magazine 30 Rock actress Tina Fey gave birth to a baby girl on Wednesday.

Fey and her composer husband Jeffrey Richmond have called their new daughter Penelope Athena.

In her memoir Bossypants, written before she announced her pregnancy, Fey discussed feeling guilty over her first child Alice not having any siblings stating: "I thought that raising an only child would be the norm in Manhattan, but my daughter is the only child in her class without a sibling. Most kids have at least two."

She added: "Who will be my daughter's family when my husband and I are dead from stress-induced cankers? She must have a sibling."

Tina has previously spoken of the difficulties of juggling raising a child with the demands of her career saying: "I never really believed it before, but when you have a child, there really aren't enough hours in the day to do anything. Basically, any free time that isn't spent looking after our daughter or working goes on sleeping."
