In her first interview since giving birth, Beyonce said that Blue Ivy Carter, her first child, would be raised as a “normal” kid who wouldn't be spoiled rotten just because her parents are rich. According to the latest report, that's exactly what she's doing.

InTouch Weekly claims in this week's print issue (story via here) that Blue Ivy, though only a few weeks old, is already the proud owner of various items of jewelry that probably cost more than a regular Joe makes in 6 months.

Not only does she have 6 nannies at her beck and call (assuming she could actually speak to summon someone), but also diamond earrings, a platinum bracelet and a pink sapphire-encrusted milk bottle.

“Beyonce isn’t leaving anything to chance when it comes to the welfare of her firstborn child. According to a friend, the new mom has two nannies on call at all times, which makes for a total of six nannies for little Blue Ivy Carter,” InTouch writes.

While Beyonce made sure her daughter was well cared for, her dad, Jay-Z, showered her with expensive presents.

“Beyonce wanted to make sure that her daughter has the best of care. Her diaper is changed every hour,” the friend says for the celebrity publication.

“Jay-Z bought her diamond earrings and a platinum baby bracelet. Even her bottle has pink sapphires on it,” adds the insider.

This is not the first time that word gets out that Bey and Jay are spending a fortune on their daughter.

Before she was even born, they reportedly splashed a cool $1.5 million (€1.17 million) on the nursery alone and toys, which included a solid gold rocking horse.

They also bought her a Swarovski-studded high chair by Carla Monchen ($15,000 / €11,745.3), a Fantasy Posh Tots Coach Carriage Crib ($22,000 / €17,147.3), a windmill playhouse ($30,000 / €23,382.6) and a mini Bugatti car to drive up to it, and a crib ($35,000 / €27,279.8), as we also reported at the time.

Of course, you're to take all this with just a grain of salt, since they're unconfirmed reports. Officially, we only have Beyonce's word that she and Jay-Z are determined to make sure Blue Ivy won't be spoiled.
