During a pre-recorded episode of Today’s 3rd Hour on Monday, Sheinelle said: “We should mention, it is a big day in the Dreyer house.”
Craig turned to Dylan in shock and asked: “Are you having another baby?”
Dylan looked equally baffled and uttered, “God, no!” as Shenielle said: “Yaayyyy.”
Dylan went on: “No! It’s Oliver’s [her son] birthday.
“Poor Ollie he’s like the middle child, he gets wrapped up between Christmas and New Year’s, but happy birthday Ollie.”
The 41-year-old has three sons with her husband Brian Fichera – Calvin, six, Oliver, three, and Russell, one.
Dylan recently celebrated Calvin’s sixth birthday with a party at a bowling alley.
She shared a sweet snap with Brian and their three sons from the day last month.
Dylan had Russell in a sling around her neck and carried Oliver on her hip.
Brian stood next to her and Calvin posed at the front of the group.
FAN BACKLASH
Dylan captioned it: “Pure chaotic joy at Cal’s birthday party. Let birthday week begin!”
Some fans took issue with the fact that Dylan was holding two of her young sons – while her husband stood next to her without helping.
“Why are you carrying two kiddos?” one asked, and another added: “Sorry, But WHY CAN’T BRIAN CARRY THE KIDS??!! DANG… DYLAN YOUR BACK IS WORTH SAVING.”
A third posted: “Ok Brian, why are you letting Dylan carry Oliver… slacking again.”
HEALTH SCARE
The backlash comes after Dylan revealed Russell and Oliver were rushed to the hospital with a terrifying respiratory virus.
She said she felt “helpless” when her youngest sons battled respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, in October.
Dylan explained that she thinks her eldest son Calvin had the virus first and passed it down to Oliver, who passed it down to Russell.
Dylan said the experience was extremely challenging, especially with all three of her sons sharing a room.
The children’s book author told PEOPLE: “One kid coughing wakes up another kid. Everybody was sort of awake and not sleeping.
“Because it’s a virus, there’s not much you can do about it. You just have to go through the motions for a few days, and it’s so sad.
“You just feel so bad for him and it just feels so helpless.”
