Yulia gave birth to a baby boy – video & transcript

Transcript by tatysite.net

Guys, thank you very much for all your congratulations! Some details.

The birth went fast and without any difficulties. Last night Yulia and Lena had a New Year party in a close circle of friends and their team. Yulia came home around midnight and was in bed by 2 AM, but at 4 AM she woke up realizing that the birth process started. Parviz took her to the hospital right away. So you see why the process went so fast – Yulia peacefully slept half of the time.

Parviz was together with Yulia when she was giving birth, he didn’t leave her for a second and cut the cord off himself.

The boy looks a lot like Daddy – as it should be. Yulia and Parviz keep the baby’s name in a secret.
