Cummings’ revelation comes as California continues to face increasingly frequent and intense wildfire seasons.

The accompanying photo captures a poignant moment: the comedian, holding her newborn, stands in an open field, watching flames consume the Southern California landscape. In a video shared alongside the image, Cummings can be seen pointing out a helicopter battling the blaze to her infant.

Fans came to Cummings' side, supporting her amid this tough time. "Oh mama, stay safe, it’s absolutely devastating. Our friends lost their home. It’s awful, thinking of everyone," one of her followers revealed.

"Go with your gut... momma instincts," another said.

"Oh man. Please stay safe.  Sending love," a third commented as someone else wrote, "Praying for everyone! It’s so sad!"

The Woodley Fire, which ignited early Wednesday morning around 6 a.m. PST, is particularly concerning.

Strong winds continue to drive the flames southward, posing a risk of crossing Burbank Boulevard.

So far, approximately 75 acres have been scorched by the Woodley Fire. Fire crews are working tirelessly to contain the blaze and prevent further damage.

Back in February, Whitney Cummings opened up about her plans for motherhood, sharing that she might try to have a baby this year after having frozen her eggs at 32.

During an appearance on the third hour of "Today" with Jenna Bush Hager and Willie Geist, Bush Hager posed a heartfelt question: “It feels like you need to be a mom. Are you thinking about it?”

"Okay so look, here's the thing. I have all the time in the world to have biological children, so there's no rush," Cummings said. "But I did freeze my eggs."

"They have a beautiful beachfront in Redondo, California. They're on better real estate than me. I do want to get them out before the sea level rises and they flood, but I was going to try this year to get pregnant," she continued. "So, any takers? Any husbands in New York? There's no husbands in L.A. Everyones on fentanyl and mushrooms, I can't."

Then, on June 20, Whitney Cummings joyfully announced her pregnancy through a series of stunning photos shared on Instagram.
