“I accidentally gave birth at home last night, in our master closet,” Jade wrote alongside a photo, which shows her cuddling the newborn as paramedics and members of her family surrounded her.
“I’ve been still processing the shock of this all, as this was not all at what I had planned, but I am so so thankful for each person who helped bring our son into the world safely.”
Jade explained that her water broke and about 75 minutes later, she found herself giving birth “while clutching a bench in our closet.”
She admitted she wanted to share “the happy, cute Instagrammable pics first” but sharing the more raw moment “felt right.”
“So incredibly grateful for the support system we had and for this beautiful boy I get to old in my arms.”
