Christina Anstead Leaves Hospital in Wheelchair After Welcoming Baby Hudson
Heading home! Christina Anstead appeared to be in great spirits while leaving the hospital with her precious baby boy, Hudson, cradled in her arms on Monday, September 9. The Christina on the Coast star was being escorted to her car in a wheelchair only a few days after she welcomed her newborn son.
The HGTV alum, 36, previously announced the birth of her bundle of joy on Instagram and she even gave fans the first glimpse at her new addition.
“Ant and I are so excited to welcome Hudson London Anstead into the world. Our hearts are SO full of love and joy! Our healthy baby boy was born this morning — 9/6/19 — 7 pounds 7 ounces 19.5 inches long,” she captioned the snap.
Prior to that, Christina shared a baby bump photo and explained why she decided to have a scheduled C-section. “I chose to do this because I had an emergency C-section with [my son] Brayden and the whole experience and recovery was really hard on me physically and emotionally. I really don’t feel comfortable trying to go down that route again,” she wrote. “Based on ultrasound measurements, we think this is going to be another big boy so this is the direction we’ve decided to take.”
Christina and her husband, Ant Anstead, 40, are clearly over the moon about having their first child together. The Flip or Flop star also shares two children with her ex, Tarek El Moussa: a daughter named Taylor, as well as a son named Brayden.
Most recently, the blonde beauty posted a heartwarming photo of her older kids meeting their new sibling.
“Perfectly captured candid moment of Tay and Bray meeting baby Hudson yesterday — just a little excited,” Christina captioned the portrait, showing Taylor and Brayden looking at their new baby brother in complete adoration.
We can’t wait to see more family photos!
