Sarah Stage, the model who made headlines for flaunting her six-pack while 8-months pregnant, has given birth to a baby boy.

Sarah Stage Welcomes Baby Boy

Stage, an established model, caused a stir when her weekly lingerie pregnancy selfies went viral. Stage’s unusually small and toned baby bump had some worrying she might be doing something unhealthy to maintain a skinny pregnant body.

At eight months pregnant, it looked like Stage’s six pack abs were still defined:

Stage defended her baby bump, and assured the public that both she and her child were in no way unhealthy. “The doctor said my baby’s healthy…I’m definitely not dieting,” Stage told Entertainment Tonight.

Stage, who only gained 20 pounds during her pregnancy, gave birth to a healthy baby boy on Wednesday, April 15. James Hunter weighed in at 8 pounds and 7 ounces, said her rep. Stage confirmed that her baby was a “big healthy boy” in a statement to E! News. Her husband celebrated the birth on Instagram, writing, “I never understood how hard a woman’s pregnancy journey was until recently… And I admired how you took on that challenge so positively.”
