Her daughter, Jude, was born Tuesday via gestational carrier, People magazine reports.

But don't expect Stewart to go by "grandma," Alexis said.

"Martha is going to be called, 'Martha,'" she revealed on her radio show, "Whatever with Alexis & Jennifer." "She seemed to have no problem with it. ... I was like, 'Do you really want to be 'grandma'? I don't like the term grandma!"

As for the baby's measurements, she said, "You're not getting her weight and length. It's rude!"

Martha has already started spoiling her granddaughter, Alexis added.

"She was born at 1 in the morning ... and [Martha] brings this huge box from Bergdorf [Goodman]. I open it up and I look inside and it's full of baby clothes, all with embroidery, and I'm like, 'Wow, I guess I'm going to be allowed to buy myself something pretty nice because all this stuff's going back!'" she said.

She contined, "If the kid can't see it, why the 100 dollar [clothes]? Only books, child appropriate or whatever - that's the only thing that I want. No toys please!"
