Halle Berry Gives Birth to a Baby Girl

Halle Berry seemed to be pregnant forever - but not anymore. The beautiful actress, aged 41, gave birth to a healthy baby girl yesterday morning at the Cedars Sinai medical Center, following a series of false alarms and a health scare earlier in the day. The actress' representative didn't confirm the news yet, but a source has exclusively revealed to Star magazine some details about the circumstances in which Halle's baby girl was born. Apparently, the Oscar-winning actress hasn't decided on a name yet - but we're standing by for any official announcements and will bring you the news as soon as it's out.

"Halle had come to the hospital at 4am in the morning because the felt like she was going into labor", the source told Star. "It was a bit scary because her blood pressure was skyrocketing and everyone was a little tense. She's a diabetic so that was complicating matters as well. The doctors checked the fetal heart rate and everything seemed okay. After a while Halle's blood pressure came down. She wasn't dilating anymore so at around 2:45pm they let her go home. Halle felt her contractions come on a lot more intensely later that night so she came back to the hospital at 11:00pm Saturday night", the source also revealed. Despite the initial scare, there were reportedly no further problems and the baby was delivered at 10:17am on Sunday morning, weighing 7lb 4 oz.

The actress is reportedly overjoyed with the birth of her baby, all the more so since she admitted struggling to conceive for a few years. "Halle was overcome with emotion when she finally held her little girl. She said everything she had gone through was worth that moment", the same source adds. "The tears kept coming as Halle didn't even want the nurses to take her baby to clean her up and measure. It was a truly beautiful scene". The actress has been quite secretive regarding what she's planning to do once the baby is born. No word yet on whether she will choose to sell the baby's first photos, like so many other celebrities did over the past months. Stay tuned and we'll keep you up to speed.
