Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker announced their pregnancy last June. The couple had been searching for a baby for months, and were excited to share the good news with the world. A few weeks ago, the parents received a health scare, which they addressed on a statement, and are now celebrating the birth of their child, an event that has been reported on by various news outlets.

Still, the parents have yet to announce the news or share images of their newborn. Their statements will likely be released at some point soon, with Barker claiming that the birth of his baby was imminent in a previous interview, while also revealing the name.

Morse immedeately asked if Rocky’s full name was Rocky Thirteen Barker, which Barker confirmed.
A dream come true
The baby’s arrival marks Kardashian’s third child and Barker’s second, and is a dream the couple has been pursuing for some time now. Over the past couple of years, Kardashian has been vocal about how difficult its been to get pregnant at 44 years old, undergoing various In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) sessions and multiple natural remedies that were taxing on her body.

While she steered clear of any details, she revealed that the intervention was terrifying. “I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life,” she wrote on social media. “I am eternally grateful to my husband who rushed to my side from tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterward, my rock.
“And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this.”
