According to E! News, a new promo for the morning show teased the news during "NBC Nightly News With Lester Holt" Wednesday.

"Now you can see more of Hoda every morning with Matt and Savannah," the video said. "Join us as we welcome her back."

Kotb has been enjoying her two-month maternity leave and has been able to introduce her new baby girl to several friends and family members including some of her “TODAY” co-hosts, Matt Lauer, Al Roker and, of course, co-host  Kathie Lee Gifford.

This week, Kotb's mother, sister, and nieces gushed over the infant in an adorable photo she shared on Twitter.

“Gang’s all here!” she wrote.

Gangs all here!!!! ❤️

😍👶🏼
