Congratulations to Power couple Dwyane wade and Gabrielle Union who welcomed a baby girl via a surrogate. Just 3 months ago, Union said she couldn’t have children due to endometriosis.
Gabrielle posted images on Instagram.com that showed her cradling the newborn in a hospital bed as Dwyane, 36, sat beside her. Gabrielle was in the hospital to give skin-to-skin contact to the newborn girl who was delivered by a surrogate the night before.
The baby was conceived via in vitro fertilization.
Gabby, 45, captioned the images:
“A LOVELY DAY [baby emojis] We are sleepless and delirious but so excited to share that our miracle baby arrived last night via surrogate and 11/7 will forever be etched in our hearts as the most loveliest of all the lovely days. Welcome to the party sweet girl! #onelastdance #skintoskin @dwyanewade…”
Medical advances in in vitro fertilization techniques have given older women like Gabrielle a shot at motherhood after 35, when pregnancies are considered high risk.
In August, Gabby opened up about her fertility struggles, saying she was unable to conceive due to a form of endometriosis.
“Towards the end of my fertility journey I finally got some answers,” she told the audience at the BlogHer conference. “Everyone said, ‘You’re a career woman, you’ve prioritized your career, you waited too long and now you’re just too old to have a kid — and that’s on you for wanting a career’. The reality is I actually have adenomyosis.”
Wade is father to 3 sons, and the couple help raise his nephew.
Congrats again to the happy couple!
Congratulations! But dang they can keep a secret. I was totally unaware a baby was on the way.
Congrats to them. Babies are the greatest blessing, especially when they are loved and wanted.
Skin-to-skin contact is not necessary to bond with babies. This is just Gabby being extra. Experts will tell you that bonding takes place via eye-to-eye contact while you breastfeed your baby or feed with a bottle.
She’s laying in that hospital bed like Kenya was. She look like she gave birth…anywho congrats to them. I’m sure the baby girl will have the best of nannies. I love babies.
She tawk almost as much as Jada Pinkett Smith
Hopefully the break baby can come over and meet his sibling…and Gabby can make a movie worth watching.
Somebody is cùtting onions up in this camp. ? I’m so happy for them ?.
This is beautiful?. Congrats to them!
Thanks for that info. She annoys me. Congrats to her family though, she has wanted this so much.
Man! She is so annoying and phony.
Congrats to the Wades!
She’s still phony and fake, can’t stand her. I hope the baby looks the surrogate mother.
damn LOL
She gone be spoiled only girl in the house.
Is it necessary to have skin to skin
With a baby you aren’t breastfeeding?
Shut up lol
I’m really happy for them… congratulations
This is beautiful, good for them… the hospital bed is over the top corny af tho….
So Gabby was so insecure about his break baby that she had to have his child by any means necessary,huh?
Lol!
Ms.? I was blessed and had a baby seven days ago. They immediately put him on my skin and they said it helps with breast feeding.
Awwww congratulations, wish them well.
Since she didn’t carry the baby, I can see why skin-to-skin contact was important to her. Even if there are no studies to prove it’s more effective in the bonding process, it’s something that she *wanted* to do to feel more connected to her child ?????
She’s the only girl and Gabs daughter. She is going to be a spoiled mess! And I love it. Like Lebrons daughter…she runs the whole show.
Thats precisely what folks are sayn
I mean she’s married to him and has no children… what’s so wrong abt that??
Yeah… trying to look some kinda way
This made me smile. I don’t care for Gabby – personally or as an actress – but I love that she was finally able to have a baby of her own. I hope she posts photos of the little girl. I’m sure she’s beautiful.
While the wife and side chick get pregnant via sexual intercourse
This is beautiful. Congrats to the Wades
I do not see anything wrong with the skin-to-skin contact she is having with her baby… she is embracing EVERY moment she can as a new mother!!! She may not have birth the child, but it is HER baby… This lady was told she would NEVER have children, so she living her dream right now! So YES get in a hospital bed, take off your shirt, hold her baby, cry your tears, kiss your husband, imitate the experience, etc…. She is not being extra she is HAPPY!!!
Congrats to them…they look absolutely delighted
congrats on a healthy baby.
(hope Xavier can meet his lil sister one day….) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5a16feb7886870b58e876a7ffc6b264e7419e743bb55ec579123b82d4a427799.gif

Congrats
chile….
Ikr
? they haven’t invited the side baby into their home yet?? That’s not goodt
Chile that Cabbage Lasagna was a hit Nan ……. a hit …… you should try it …. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/51c6b3f7a6512ebaa1918af76267cbf3565dd650397e2957034187e652b8b8a3.gif and it wasn’t gas city …
oh gosh! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/bb4264f7d4d7227830d50436ebc02fe52f854ab6633bc6dbb91c04c30c8efcd0.gif
chile cheese
Lebron’s baby girl is a living doll!
I’m so happy for them!!
Yes it is necessary.
well, we don’t see Lil X in none of the pics, so we kinda take for granted that Gabs don’t welcome him with open arms, Lol
you are so sweet @Sun!
But dwade up there getting his skin to skin on too…
Yes.
What does A have to do with B?
I’m the mother of a child that I gave birth too and did not breast feed. He had all the skin to skin
CONGRATS ??????
you are making me want some cabbage… and i saw this lady on utube who did a fried cabbage with kielbasa. chile, i may have to stop by the grocery store! *smacks lips*
huh??
Did I miss that it wasn’t her egg?
??????
We don’t need no hateration in this nursery….
I looked into selling my eggs once… Ijs for $10k I was down to give them what I’m not using ? well come to find out it was all good until I entered my race… I suppose there wasn’t a high demand for blk women’s eggs.
Yes. Look at dwade doing it too. Baby learns mom and dad scent…
Stop!! …um over hea>>>>>try’n not to laff
LMMFAO ?????
I respect your opinion; but does the rape she suffered as a young adult bear any influence on her behavior or your thoughts about it?
Genuinely curious, me
Yew serious? White wimmen huh?
Hopefully they used Gabbys egg. Now who hurt you? It wasn’t Gabby…
Yeah that’s a tell tell sign. I personally couldn’t do that to a child. If I couldn’t accept the indiscretion fully then I would just let the man go
she just ornery for no reason. nothing to see here. LOL!
Chile…
As If Gabs would allow That! TUH!
Yess!! Congrats to you!! ??
Whur is Dwyane ex Siovaughn at? Yew ain heard a peep outta her in years
All these studies. There was no such thing as skin to skin contact, Kangaroom Care or whatever it’s called…in 1995 when I birthed originally. It was but wasn’t fetch then Never heard the term until 13 yo was born. So…I didn’t bond with 24 yo? Seems like we did lol. IDK. I’m lost to half of it most times honestly.
She married him after he had a ‘break’ baby.
That should have told her that he would not be faithful in the future.
Gabby only went through with the marriage to save face.
yeah, in this case, i totally agree. it happened before they were married, so she made a conscious decision to forgive him. plus, knowing how he feels about his children, i would think she would have taken that into consideration.
The truth is never hate.
There’s a survey they have you complete. Everything was looking good until I checked that box chile. Next thing you know a message popped up saying unfortunately blah blah blah ?
Imma check back again in 5 years since more of US are doing it now lbvs
Babies are sweet and a blessing and all but I have a problem with this only because of how he lets her dictate his relationship with his “break baby”. That poor baby isn’t in any family photos or even mentioned by them. I feel sooooo bad for him and how he may feel in the future. Despite being cared for financially I bet hes gonna have issues later in life. BTW I cant STAND her.
She wants that man by any means necessary
So….why is she in the hospital bed looking/acting like she just gave birth???
Yew knew exactly what that meant
Cause it’s her baby :o)
That’s your opinion. How do you know what’s in her heart, that she is insecure? This woman survived a rape…and has fertility issues that prevented her from carrying her own child. Where is your compassion for her personal triumph in this beautiful moment? That is the definition of hate…
Lol
Thank you! Who wouldn’t want that experience? I know someone that adopted and did the same thing. Some people will never understand HAPPINESS! :o)
ignant… LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!
you said it’s a celebrate?! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cf6c09d8f9cfcb1b0abb353e00a58a30f275474419df71012c9a3f79390bd130.gif
Awe man, too bad she couldn’t pass on those dimples and pretty skin. But congratulations to them both.
She did tho. The baby has Gabby’s DNA, it just wasn’t carried in her womb
?
Quits you
That crazy broad probably still downtown holding signs that say D Wade abandoned her
“Gabrielle was in the hospital to give skin-to-skin contact to the newborn girl who was delivered by a surrogate the night before.”
I feel ya !!!!
I am no Gabby fan. By far. I see nothing wrong with skin to skin contact. If that is what you choose to do. However I don’t feel like every single intimate moment needs to be documented. Skin to skin contact is just that. Intimate. You hid the surrogacy but then you show skin to skin contact knowing that all of this judgment is going to happen. Oh well congrats and to each
You are right Ms. Sandra. Baby gazing is the bonding.
Congrats to them!! I feel so much sadness for women who can’t conceive/carry babies to term because no matter where on this planet you go, womanhood is intertwined with motherhood. I think it could easily make them feel like less of a woman. (Even tho not being able to provide don’t make none of these broke ass men feel like less of a man, but i digress.)
Anywho I’m thrilled for them!!
Did I miss the part where it said the egg and womb was paid for?
Endometriosis makes it harder to conceive and or carry a baby but is does not stop you from producing eggs folks.
Women who do conceive with the disease have to be monitored.
What i don’t understand is why she’s in a hospital gown. Was she a patient too?
Ok, I was thinking her eggs were dried up and she used donor eggs. Good to hear.
Good for Gab. She got what she wanted AND saved her vaginal expiration date hence her relationship with D “creep creep” Wade. Gab for the win!
Because only an insecure woman would marry a man who not only cheated on her but didn’t even use protection.
The child and I hope it doesn’t happen may have issues bc if the distance. My sister is the same way bc she was my dad side child
What is a vaginal expiration date?
I am sorry but Scorpios along with Arians bring out the worst in me.
Supposedly for this contact. That I never even heard of til almost 14 years ago. What folks do to bond with their mama prior to this IDK. I KNEW me and Dub23 weren’t bonded https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/4efdf177fc828e5862de440c24a037210ffc7509bf0bb93d345a14254c167cd7.jpg
Well he did ????
That makes total sense
Lololol…I am an Aries!
Chile…
Um waitin too
Because emotionally she did just give birth…hello?
It’s not really judgment because a lot of people don’t know what that is so it looks odd for someone who didn’t have a baby to be in a hospital gown. It’s a legit response to question that. I didn’t know about that l until I saw pic of Jeff Lewis and his partner with the baby they had via surrogate. Jeff was in a hospital gown and I asked why he was wearing that. Jeff is a goodball so it seemed like something he would do to be silly. My question apparently triggered some guy and he gave me an ear full (or whatever the initernet version of that saying is). I guess that’s a newish thing. I haven’t been to a birth in about 9 years and they didn’t do that (that I recall). She was at one of the best hospitals in the country so I’m assuming that wasn’t done back then since that hospital didn’t do it. My friends/family with older kids have never heard of skin to skin either. Having said that, I agree with you that people need to keep intimate moments private. A simple photo of them fully dressed holding the baby would have been fine. Being celebrities, they know people are going to comment. Based on Gaby’s history I think she enjoys being able to argue with people and claim she’s being bullied. I don’t care what ppl say, having a baby doesn’t change everyone’s personality. You can be a mom and still be an attention whore.
She may have hid the surrogacy for fear that something would go wrong.
A lot, trust me the question was not meant to judge.
Your situation and hers are different. Im trying to understand the skin to skin, I breastfed and my doula mentioned it was necessary for breastfeeding.
I wasn’t trying to be funny, I promise
Its sterile! Don’t they make you put on a gown when you undress in a hospital?
Congrats to the happy couple!
It must be really tough to want to give birth to a baby and for whatever reason you can’t.
She is likely wearing a hospital gown because she too off her top and just needed a cover-up.
I don’t know why my first reactions were “that’s random”, then “doesn’t he have enough kids”, “hmmm I don’t know about this”. I need to get off the blogs for a little while because that’s not a right response to a baby announcement. So, congratulations Gaby and DWade (again). Omg I’m bad
All of what you said!!!
I’m sure after the surrogate had the baby it was past on to her for that skin to skin contact. Sandra said Gabby was just being a lil xtra.
Lmao when i was in undergrad I did too!! My mama was like “oh, hell naw!” ???????
To make the first physical contact with the baby intimate. When you give birth they plop that wet baby on your chest lol. She didn’t get that. So maybe its a bonding thing. ?
I think people just held the baby without all these rules and stuff back in the day. I’m pretty sure most moms just naturally do skin to skin anyway just because it happens lol, especially if they’re breastfeeding. But you know people have to overthink every things these days and make a big production out of things that’s beej happening since the beginning of time.
Did she? A lot of people buy the eggs too. I don’t know what Gaby did because I didn’t know she was having a baby until this post.
I’ve seen adoptive parents do it too – and that’s not even their sp3rm + egg. I don’t know why it matters ?????
i miscarried in my late 20s and was diagnosed with Endometriosis. i also had fibroids that resulted in several surgical procedures. (my womb was all fugged up, Lol!) still, i don’t feel in any sense “like less of a woman” …matter of fact, “i’m every woman” (Chaka’s orig version, not preg Whit’s, Lol) has been my theme song in my head for Years. *pats fro and reapplies lippy*
i helped rear my nieces and nephew, and i love them all as my own, and they love the heck outta me too. of course, it was a stunning setback when the dr told me i prob would never have a child, as it would be to any young woman. but i was surrounded by fam and was even able to eventually have a laugh even in that moment. my sisters and i were all crying and one of them blurted out ‘well you can have Crystal!’ (her youngest). when i tell you i went from sobbing to laughing hysterically! my fam is cray, and i love it!
i do wonder sometimes what my child would be like now if he/she had lived, but i’m no longer saddened by the loss.
and, anyway, after all i put my mama through, i may have dodged a bullet, LOL!
lawd… ROFL!
Why is laying there like she did something? ?
Well, i will say the fact that this negro has 1 baby he don’t even seem to want to claim does make it a little ironic that he’s having another
Me too but I don’t expect much from a man who makes a “break baby” anyway. I hate that this child will have that break baby title over him forever. That’s such a terrible thing to put on an innocent child. Gaby is shady too. If you’re going to stay with the man you have to accept all of his crap. She could at least stay private about their life since she isn’t going to accept the kid. I remember when she did that magazine interview talking about being a step mom to TWO boys. People in the comments were lighting her up about not acknowledging that she has three step sons. That’s cruel.
Awwe so sweet… Why she look like she just gave birth though ?
Don’t do it. I read about how a lot of surrogate (and probably applies to egg donors) don’t realize that they are going to get screwed later because that money gets taxed heavily. It’s not worth it.
sorry Nee, but this tickled the heck outta meh! LOL!
Yes when I’m the patient. I look at gabby as a visitor in this situation. Grandaddies and aunties and uncles who come to visit the baby dont have to wear a gown. Maybe she wanted the full giving birth experience
So the housley neice was among the dead. And news sandra
Yes. And I bet Gaby chose the girl embryo so her child would be the only girl. I can’t stand guys who parent some kids and not the other, especially when they are in the public eye with some kids and the other is watching at home while his parent pretends he doesn’t exist. It also breeds contention between siblings. Speaking of, do y’all think Blue Ivy is going to get a surprise from Jay’s outside kid(s) one day?
hmmmm…. seems this blog baby shower is taking a ‘turn’ https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3b9f88fc650d322c2b347c745c726706da63b14a2f661f2730b5828a47380b52.gif let me get on outta here.
(don’t save me no cake @Sandra, i’m watching my intake ’til turkey day, but thanks anyway)
….i’ll holla at yall later. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/42e766825cc2dd5dbc519049a6665384ef032d605184f428da26f418913d9567.gif
I heard she got the house and several cars and a lump sum. It was a while ago that i read that article because at first I was on her side and then i read what she got out of their divorce and i remember thinking why is she complaining?
Even her hair looks like she gave birth.
They don’t even make the birthing moms put on hospital issued gowns anymore. You can bring one from home. I guess it’s what she truly wanted tho
Thank you!!????
shet yo mouf up! LOL!
how you avoid ‘bonding’ with something/somebody residing & developing INSIDE YOU for 9 mos. ma’am????
She got that after a long battle. But none of that lessens the pain of your man leaving you and humiliating you by pretending he didn’t do anything wrong and trying to erase you from your own family. Plus Gaby was shameless about flaunting their relationships. Even DWade had to tell Gaby to chill on twitter once bc she posted a pic she photoshopped making fun of the wife.
We ain’t do no skint to skint! She been odd her whole life. Now I know WHY.
Awww that’s a sweet and inspiring story ?? I’m happy for you. My sister is currently having a tough time conceiving and i suspect she feels even worse about it because although she’s had some setbacks in her career and personal life i think the baby thing is something she thought she cud “do” just by virtue of being female.
I hope to be as supportive as your fam was!
Thank you!
Right people are really throwing shade it’s her baby let her enjoy motherhood geez!
Be safe Ladee
Exactly!
Neither did I wow-but great news congrats to the Wade family.
It really sucks because at the end of the day children are always innocent. I will never date a man who doesn’t take care of his kids and I even fell out with one of my male cousins who refuses to take care of his son.
Anywho, i thought Jay’s outside kids were a myth. Any proof they actually exist ? (Aside from Sandra’s claims lol)
Congratulations to the Wade family.
Things like that are always a myth…until they’re not lol. That’s when the scandal starts. I was kinda joking.
If there were hardcore proof it wouldn’t be a myth, the Carters image wouldn’t be what it is, and some handlers would be axed. But, in Jay’s case some of the “rumors” seemed plausible
Thats a very fair point. I guess I’m being insensitive. It just angers me to see women reduce themselves to nothingness over failed relationships. I’ve also never been married and don’t have any kids so i suppose I really don’t know how i would react in her situation
I’m hoping that all the kids will be treated fairly and feel lots of love. Unity and no playing favorites.
??? i kno Gabby is so happy??
the whites have been posing with adopted and surrogate babies like they had them for years. Sharon Stone posed on the cover of People magazine and that was over 20 years ago.
I agree. I think she may have had legitimate mental health issues and that situation just made it worse. This was before people started having all this compassion and open conversations about mental health.
True. I just found out the other day that Karl Malone has a grown son who he just completely failed to acknowledge AND he got the mother pregnant when she was only 12! And scottie pippen has 2 or 3 other kids even tho he only acknowledges the half breeds he has with Larsa. So I guess only time will reveal the Carter secrets
Life is about experiences ?
U think the side baby is feeling loved ?
I’m sure Dwayne is happier,he has his first baby girl…she’s gonna be Daddys girl
I hope she gets the help she needs. I do wonder where her family is while she’s out holding signs and such. Like no sister friends, mom, dad cousins decided to intervene in her meltdown? Or maybe they support it…
I’m extraordinarily happy for them!!! All the blessings in the WORLD!!????
Omg ? ? ? I had no idea. 12? That’s sick.
That’s what I mean about celebs having secret lives people think are myths. Rich people know how to maintain a certain family image for their careers. They pay off everyone and hire people to keep up the facade because the family image is good for business. The wife goes along with it because the money is still rolling in. I didn’t know until a few years ago that Eddie Murphy had so many baby mamas. I thought all his kids were with Nicole when they were parading the happy family on the red carpet. Eddie has a kid by Nicole and another woman who are almost the same age.
Sometimes those “outside kids” grow up resentful and bitter when they weren’t acknowledged and that doesn’t always end well. There are so many movies about situations like that because it happens IRL.
I think I can deal with skin to skin contact for a mother that didn’t give birth. It’s this ish here that I don’t like. Sean T and his hip hop abs, and his bebbies deddy…know they wrong. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9109487f98e043a2cdb7ebc736a69a04d4271b87949ef2b19dd7e64b65d6912a.jpg
It’s OK for her to look like she just gave birth..Period! Do you know how much it cost for a surrogate (over $40,000 +) not to mention the cash behind their names. If Gabby wants to reenact the entire scenario let her have, her moment. I know if it was me, I would have had on full gown, hair bonnet and all. It only comes “once in a life time” #memories. Congrats to the Wade Family, babies are always a blessing. #proudmom
Her feelings hurt I read her and her family used to hold him down until he got famous
I know that being a mother was something that she has always wanted. I am very happy for them. BUT I know damn well Gabby didn’t lay up in that bed and mess her hair up so that she can show these to the baby later in life. I’m thru. I envy this pics because this pic unlike so many women who gave birth know the utter pain your in trying look cute holding your new bundle of joy. My pics looked forced. You can tell I was in pain and I was holding on to my baby for dear life. Damnit Damnit Damnit!!! My bad yall I had a flashback!
The lass is terched on account y’all skints weren’t touching? Lawd?
Ang skin to skin contact (bonding) was around 9 years ago. I have a 9 year old. The second he was delivered, they threw him on my chest. It freaked me out because they didn’t warn me. He was my first and only child. ?
It should be expensive to pay a surrogate. It’s your child. Plus the surrogate is taking a lot of risks. If she ends up having complications and can’t work during the pregnancy or after that 40K (that will be taxed) really isn’t much.
She here in GA.
Aww…baby love!
Congrats to them.
Congratulations they look so happy!
That’s good for you. Like I said below, people been doing things since the beginning of time without putting a bunch of labels and making a big deal about things. I have not seen people who didn’t give birth wearing hospital gowns doing that until recently.
It’s quite unfortunate because we don’t get to pick the circumstances we are born into. I also think it adds insult to injury when the so called fathers not only refuse to acknowledge the child, but also try to nickel and dime their moms. Like Matthew knowles and his outside babies. Now those kids will not only grow up seeing their siblings have a relationship with dad, but they’ll also see them living a life of luxury while they are eating government cheese. Resentment is inevitable
Typical Scorpio attitude.
They want what they want even if they end up being destroyed in the process.
Not coming at you in a hostile manner. That’s not what I do. I was simply replying to your statement that mother and child bonding was around 9 years ago. This is also just a statement. I also gave birth to my child in my personal gown.
See @Nan, that’s why we’ll forever be like peas and carrots (Jenny and Forrest)…Celie and Nettie??…Ike and Tina…well, maybe not that last one, but you know what I mean.?? Anyhoo, due to cancer and fibroids i didn’t birth any children either but have raised plenty. I’ve never felt less than a woman. Motherhood/parenting is what occurs AFTER a child is born and is / should not / is oftentimes confused with birthing a child…that’s childbirth not to be equated with the unconditional love, patience, loving discipline and teaching / molding / preparing for adulthood that comes with mothering a child.
Yep. I felt so bad for the little girl when Wendy showed a video of her singing a Beyoncé song and her mom said she really wants to meet her sister. It was wrong to let that child think she was going to be apart of Beyoncé’s family. The other baby mama and the son were put out their house. They’re around Blue Ivy’s age. Bey posts pictures with Matthew. You know his kids hate seeing all stories about the Knowles family and being left out. They probably get teased in school too bc everyone knows who they are. Gaby acts like DWades outside kid doesn’t exist. That’s going to really hurt now that there is one younger than him.
Hashtag ignant!!??? just won’t/can’t do right, will you?!? ??
Okay my bad.
I mostly hear that term when it’s a surrogate situation. Maybe they don’t have to make a big deal about it when it’s a birth mom. Plus the pics don’t throw ppl off when it’s a birth mom.
I hope they were able to work something out. They need to do the right thing by those kids. They’ve all been through some type of trauma.
@leap, well it’s two momma daddies…wh and t they sposed to do? Least they ain’t “breastfeeding”
Omg lmao i just realized that!!
Ohhh because I thought that is what they were doing-artificial breast feeding, and the tubes were simulated breasts that’s why it’s attached to their chest.
Wait, what? That’s a thing? ?
This is the prettiest she has ever looked to me! Thst’s what happiness does! Happy for them.
Forgot about turkey day weight gain. I’m already too far gone to slack up now ?.
Whaaat is this?
We can only hope. From the looks of things Gabby claims 3 sons — Wade’s 2 boys and the nephew hes raising. Things may get better in the future tho. Having her own baby may even encourage her to push her husband to have a better relationship with his other son
To Eudoxies (ludacris wife) credit she seems to have embraced or at the very least acknowledges her step “break” daughter
Who said the mother allows the child to be in public pictures. It’s not like he lives with the Wade’s like the other two do. The mother may want him to have a bit of privacy as he doesn’t live like the other two do. Shannon Browns son goes to everything Monica’s kids do however the mother doesnt want him in pictures.
I don’t see anything wrong, I thought it was just necessary for breast feeding…..I think it’s beautiful
Well, she doesn’t have a choice because that girl lives with them. Hopefully, she does treat the little girl right, especially now that she had her own daughter. I feel bad for all these kids in these messed up situations. Money doesn’t make up for everything.
Beautiful
You’re so right ?
So happy for her. She tried so many times. Now everybody can stop talking about them divorcing.
Chiile some surrogacy can range from 100,000+ but their are factor
Key word being “can”. It’s not usually that much. But rich people were taking advantage of women for a long time before there were stricter laws. Kim K paid her surrogate 35K.
I’m happy you’re no longer saddened by your loss. I also know those kids love their Auntie. ?
Congrats to Gabby.
I notice alot of women are looking for them to divorce. For what though?
they laid up in that bed like she just gave birth fo real gtfoh
Congratulations to them! Just here wondering how miserable one has to be to see something wrong with these pictures…
? No lies.
I can see that. I can also see her wanting pictures to show the little girl as she grows up.
Shiiiiiiid…yall remember her bring it on role….she a mean girl turned woman for real
??
This is amazing! So happy for them!! She is such a beautiful soul
It’s called skin to skin…. the birth mother and actual mother who provides the egg both have hospital rooms. The child is immediately given to the mom for skin to skin so yes she’s laid up in the bed because she will be there until the baby is set to leave
As I said up top It’s called skin to skin…. the birth mother and actual mother who provides the egg both have hospital rooms. The child is immediately given to the mom for skin to skin so yes she’s laid up in the bed because she will be there until the baby is set to leave
Because she is giving skin to skin like all mothers who have surrogates do. She will be in the hospital in her own room until the baby leaves!
Sandra can you please educate folks on how surrogacy works. The birth mom is given a room and skin to skin is performed for bonding purposes. They stay until the baby goes home. People acting like they don’t understand why she is in a bed and such!! ??
They share custody of the child
She’s performing skin to skin. Since she is the babies mom that’s how they bond
I don’t have a problem with it. My point was that it’s understandable that people have questions.
Well, technically she’s not the “birth mom”, but the biological mom. I do agree with the skin to skin in her situation though.
Congratulations to them! I’m so happy Gabby got her chance to experience motherhood.
We know what skin to skin is and alot of people do skin to skin without laying up in a bed… Daddies for example?
Yes ? Very extra! At first glance on IG , I was like dang why she all emotional holding her wrist and then next pic I see the baby & was like, when was she preggers. So were those actually her eggs? Or was the surrrogate providing the DNA? ? …Good blessings to them!
Congrats!
Well since ppl claiming all kinda races now just check the Caucasian box next time.
Why you put this image in my mine??????
??
Please stop ?
The hospital provides a separate room for both mothers. She stays there until the baby is discharged. Where the hail is she supposed to lay then on the floor?? ?????
My bad. Upon further research they took the babies feeding tubes and strategically placed them there, and WE gonna leave it at that because my curious george azz went digging around on Google when I thought this was an actual appartus. Apparently, the whole simulated breast for breastfeeding is a real thing, even among heterosexual couples. Some women get them for their husbands, grandparents, caretakers, etc. I wish I wasn’t so nosey at times.
I sincerely hope your sister finds peace and contentment (and some perspective on the struggle to conceive, which is more common than she might think). Let her know that she’s not alone in the struggle, and let her know that she is “enough” as the unique and wonderful woman that she is right now. Bless you and yours. ?
You said it best hun. That’s beautiful. *tight hug*
*sniffles* …got my doggone allergies acting up??
My mom delivers babies and YES skin to skin is preferred. She’s being a mother not extra! She also will not be breastfeeding her child because she was not pregnant. Not sure why I expected more form a so called nurse but Ok!
Exactly! She won’t be breastfeeding and this is what ALL moms are supposed to do
??????
????
Congrats
Awww, thank you, Vonn. *tunes up face to do ugly church cry*?
Olive Juice sis
I’ve actually seen this before. I just don’t know why these two manage to make it look slightly ‘perverse’ ?
Ju better.
??
?
Taint never too late Ni Ni!
Yep. Especially the baby deddy.
I got a cry in my eye too ??
I think folks know this it’s more like, why did she post that picture? Couldn’t she have waited until they
got home? Its a odd choice. Even women who give birth don’t post hospital pics.
Maybe a person who has never actually given birth naturally or via surrrogacy may not fully understand the skin to skin concept.
LOL Bye
She posted the pics because she was excited and wanted to share these moments with fans. I don’t understand why it matters
That’s not true. I’ve seen a lot of celebrity dads doing skin to skin contact in the hospital. I don’t know why folks are making a big thing about this
Yeah that’s way too low. I want to be compensated for carrying my own child, but if I’m doing for someone else? Then I want an extra $250k, in addition to $10k a month. They bugging for accepting those pennies
Exactly
Because it’s usually women who are desperate for money.
In the first picture and if you didn’t know better, you would think that Wade is the one who just had a baby.
She bissshes him out anyway possible.
This not a break baby?
Congrats, Imma pray for them though ??
Let alone skin to.dkin with momdade
Thank you so much ! ??
Did he do skin to skin contact with Xavier? Where those pics at? He can put his shirt back on for all I’m concerned.
Lol why does that matter? Gabby is the only person that has to deal with his break baby. Nobody else. What he did or didn’t do with ANY of his kids when they were born is none of our business. The fact of the matter is they welcomed their baby, and wanted everyone to share in their moment of happiness. You lol need to let this hostility gooooo… let it gooooo lolol
You hit the nail on the head. Exactly what I was getting at. That comment was on another blog, so not even my comment. Made it to make a huge point. It’s none of anyone’s biz. Exactly. I’m tired as hayle of these pick me ass celebs and oversharing folks in general . Keep your private moments private. Putting folks in your biz. I normally don’t care but as of late, I’m tired of it. And I think folks as a whole are too.
Anyone who has a pic of a newborn that was a fetus a few hours ago on a cover, the focus of a social media post, all up in the spotlight, is oversharing. Surrogate or not. I stand by it. Idgaf WHAT color they are. Keep your private stuff private. These the same type folks that will cause a ruckus over…their privacy being invaded! Can’t have it both ways. It’s not hard
Congratulations to them!!
Gabrielle jumps in the bed like she just finished giving birth. I don’t agree with surrogacy and IVF. If you can’t have children you have to accept that. Adoption is Ok.
You are so funny! Yes, I know exactly what you mean. Childbirth ain’t no joke. Be Blessed and Have a Great Weekend.
She didn’t give birth. And this skin-to-skin crap is some other made up mess. If that baby was starving and know one else was around to help Gabriella couldn’t even make milk from her tits.
That’s what I’m saying
I feel you. People couldn’t comment on celebrities’ lives if they didn’t put their business out there. If you put it out there for millions of people to comment don’t be mad because every comment isn’t what you wanted. You can be famous and share your news and still keep your business private. I saw Kerry Washington pregnant but I’ve never seen her kids. Actors from scandal say she’s happily married and enjoys being a mom but she doesn’t put it in the public’s face.
I hope so, he didn’t asked to come here. If Gabby is not treating that little boy right, then shame on her. God sees it all. Be Blessed and Have a Great Weekend.
she aint do no pushin…LOL
And I bet you are blessed with a child or have the opportunity to have one…
Congrats to them both!
Please explain. This is interesting. I’m happy her dream came true.
She is overjoyed. She has been wanting this for so long and has been deprived. She couldn’t wait to post. I love it!
Morning all that is incorrect she can breastfeed if she chooses to even though she did not actually birth this baby. Modern science is a great thing and it is possible. I know a couple who used a surrogate for their twins and she was able to breastfeed them for about the first six months with no problem. But I don’t know the steps involved to get the milk to start flowing.
Congrats and blessing to the parents and their new baby girl!!!!
Probably not, he’s a miserable old dude who lives with his mom.
Oh shut up
I’m not a tranny clown. And yes I’ve given birth. How could any woman forget going through something like that. Something Grabielle won’t have to bother with.

I’ll see you there boo *kisses*
There are three different ways to accomplish this. Two ways are through drugs and one through The breast pump only method is for women who have given birth previously. Grabielle ain’t about to let those tits start hanging.
Toodles
I can’t even wrap my mind around the irony of your username and the above comment.
Dude, it’s her kid. Her child. Her daughter. Her blood (not that it matters), her DNA (again, not that it matters), but it is HER BABY. What she chooses to do with her newborn baby, her t*ts, her body, what hospital gown she’s wearing, or if she chooses to place her baby her bare skin – AGAIN – it’s her dayum baby! Who cares if the skin to skin sh*t is nonsense? No one is asking for your uninformed and useless opinion on the matter. The baby is cuddling with her mama and daddy’s bare skin – GTFO it!
My goodness, lol!
Thanks Nancy :)… *kiss kiss*
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!
I’m not a trannie clown and yes I’ve given birth. Can’t forget it! She purchased a baby. And it doesn’t say that she used her own eggs. I can give my opinion the same as you have If you don’t like it then eat rocks clown.
Blessings to them! I wouldn’t want a child in my late 40’s but if they’re happy that’s all that matters.
Congratulations!
Look here, tranny Michelle lol, you’re either going to get over your “ire” or w/e the fawk crazy emotion is going on your confused gender body lol, or you can d!e with it lol. Those are your choices.
As far as you and your uninformed opinion, y’all can both exit left… ??
Actually the hospital does not provide. YOU RENT AN ADDITIONAL ROOM.
Excuse me but my name stands for TransMichelleObama clown. You all up in your feelings like Gabrielle paying you or something. Now take your white liberal following azz somewhere and sit down.
Tell me where I said daddies don’t do skin to skin. You people really got your panties in a bunch today.
Ok cool I was not sure how it works.
So does his “on break” son get to meet his sister at the same time Dwayne/Slovakia’s (sp) sons and nephew meet her?
Why the hell did you name yourself TransMichelle?

My name stands for TransMichelleObama. If you have any other questions ask Odumba your 44th president about it. LOL
Lol! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e86501847072dcba783eea0bbb2c002d3ed3d888581b08556155899f7897582f.gif
No prob
LOL….wtf?!
Hey it’s easy money and we have pkenty… Men donate their seeds all the time
well congrats to them!!!
Good for her, she seems like she would make a great mother!
Lol
Yeah um so basically I said what I said! A second room is provided ?
Which is why it would be nice if someone explained it to people. They are ragging on Gabrielle like she is doing something out of the ordinary when she is just bonding with her child
I have seen plenty post pics in hospitals right after birth! I see actual home births filmed and posted on instagram!!
????
Well
If she wants to take a picture with the baby whilst in this pose which rule book says she cant? She hasn’t lied and said she carried the baby herself…. uhem *khloe*….its her baby she can pose with her baby as she pleases as long as she’s not hurting the baby and most certainly it shouldn’t be hurting anyone else
Yeah not a fan. #TEAMSIOUVAGHN
RIGHT like he come on people. No one wants to acknowledge that. I would be holding signs to someone trying to take my kids and I was up against a celebrity with that kind of money status and image to the media.
Because ‘F’ all that aint nothing like not having your kids. I’d hold a sign, get on youtube, Social Media and have my own darn parade about mines.
Her family did. They took his raggedy Arse in ,…..ooh don’t get me started! He wasn’t even a good NBA pick!
RIght…..man thank you for posting that. No one wants to see this. Very well said.
Thanks love same to you!
Congratulations!
Good for her!!!!
Skin-to-skin contact is not necessary to bond with the baby. Liberals started that nonsense about a decade ago. Baby’s and parents bond via eye contact while feeding.
While moms worry about skin contact, them babies are freezing! Baby’s have less skin surface, they lose heat quickly. Dress them babies in clothes, wrap them in a blanket and put a skully on their heads. Then feed them and make sure you make eye contact. ????
Exactly. When babies are born they search for our eyes. It’s in their DNA to make eye contact. Liberals started that skin to skin nonsense. Babies only care about sleeping, eating and gazing into mommy’s eyes.
Yes it is understandable. A lot of people that have not experienced it simply don’t know. I can honestly say When I first saw the picture I was what in the world is gabby doing, but now it makes sense. Have a great day and a phenomenal weekend.
Exactly!! That was my whole thing.
LOL. Thanks boo you too!!
She has enough money to pay another woman to breastfeed if she so chooses and whose business would that be. Let this family be happy in this moment.
Exactly. Odd choices.
If her mf ass dont get out that hospital bed looking like she just went through the hard work of labor tf
AMEN
She paid for the baby and now she has to pay someone to breastfeed the child. Oh goodness
Let me ask you a question–would you go ahead and marry a man who not only cheated on you but was careless enough to get another woman pregnant?
Remember what Maya Angelou said–when people show you who they are BELIEVE them.
Gabby is always going to be looking over her shoulder as long as she’s married to Wade.
don’t nobody care about that funny looking break baby. nobody
go back to your room cold heart
Hmmmm. What did you do with Sandra, cause this doesn’t sound like her. Ghostwriter maybe?
She is so full of shiit.
Did he give skin-to-skin contact to the break baby? Was he even present when that child was born? smh
That’s just nasty. Gay people are the worst.
Because it’s two men doing it instead of women. That’s perverse.
Thank you so much… truly a blessing from God ????
That’s facts
