Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker reveal first photo of baby Rocky and open up about welcoming son in emotional post
KOURTNEY Kardashian and her husband Travis Barker have revealed the first photo of their newborn baby, Rocky, whom the couple welcomed on Thursday, November 2.
Newborn Rocky, along with parents Kourtney, 44, and Travis, 47, all appear to be safely home from the hospital as the married couple settles their boy into their Calabasas, California, mansion.
In the photos, posted on Instagram, the couple showed off their new bundle of joy.
The first pic showed the Kardashian with her head in her rocker husband’s lap as he held their baby close to his chest.
Rocky’s tiny pale feet were the main focus in the next picture as he was being cradled by his father.
The third photo highlighted a touching moment as Kourtney could be seen breastfeeding Rocky.
His tiny head could be seen covered in brown hair as his mom held up her sweatshirt while he ate.
Another photo was posted of Travis with Rocky, but this time he was gently kissing his son on the cheek.
The final photo also showed the father and son duo hanging out with the baby lying on Travis’ chest.
HE’S HERE!
According to TMZ, the baby boy’s full name is Rocky Thirteen Barker, which the Blink-182 drummer first confirmed last week.
Kourtney arrived at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California, on Monday, October 30, PEOPLE reported.
On Thursday afternoon, Travis was spotted at the medical center.
Witnesses claimed Kourtney’s youngest sister Kylie Jenner, 26, arrived in a Range Rover before entering the facility.
Details about Rocky’s birth have yet to be confirmed, but fans are overjoyed about the Hulu star giving birth to her fourth child.
NAME GAME
Just days before Kourtney gave birth, Travis leaked their baby’s name on his friend Toby Morse’s podcast, One Life One Chance.
Travis said: “There was a benefit in Hawaii that we were gonna do, but it’s the week that Rocky’s due.”
Toby asked: “Rocky Thirteen Barker?”
The Blink-182 star confirmed: “Rocky Thirteen Barker!”
When Toby commented on the uniqueness of the name, Travis quipped: “He’s gonna come out of my wife’s vagina, like, doing front kicks and push-ups.”
Travis first hinted he would name his son Rocky Thirteen back in July.
The rocker chatted about potential baby names with his daughter Alabama while appearing on Goat Talk with Complex.
The pair were asked what the “greatest of all time baby name” would be.
Alabama, 17, shared: “Audemar, Milan, Patek.”
Travis replied: “I like Rocky 13. That’s this name that’s just been going through my head lately.”
Alabama shot the idea down and said the name is “so bad.”
“It is bad,” Travis admitted and added: “Rocky George played guitar for Suicidal Tendencies and 13 is just the greatest number of all time.”
SCARY SURGERY
Kourtney has faced several pregnancy struggles before happily giving birth.
On September 1, Travis and his band canceled tour dates in Glasgow, Belfast, and Dublin due to an “urgent family matter.”
Later that week, Kourtney revealed she suffered a major scare and underwent fetal surgery on her unborn baby.
“I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life,” she told fans in a heartfelt post at the time.
“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.
“As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn’t prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent fetal surgery.
“I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear.
“I have a whole new understanding and respect for the mamas who have had to fight for their babies while pregnant.”
“Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing,” the TV personality concluded.
BETTER TOGETHER
The Poosh founder already has three children with her ex Scott Disick, 40 – their son Mason, 13; daughter Penelope, 11; and son Reign, eight.
Meanwhile, Travis shares two kids with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler, 48 – his son Landon, 19, and daughter Alabama.
He also acts as a father figure to Atiana de la Hoya, 24, who is Shanna’s daughter with her ex, Oscar de la Hoya, 50.
Back in June, Kourtney revealed she was pregnant after undergoing months of IVF.
Later, she confirmed she got pregnant naturally despite all the medical intervention.
She announced the pregnancy while in the crowd at Travis’ concert in Los Angeles.
Kourtney revealed the exciting news by holding a sign that read “Travis I’m pregnant” – a nod to the band’s iconic music video for All the Small Things.
A week later, Kourtney and Travis announced they were having a baby boy.
