Gisele Bundchen Talks About The Birth Of Her Son

Gisele Bundchen

Gisele Bundchen wanted to be ‘very aware and present during the birth’ of her son. According to the Daily Mail, she told Brazilian TV channel Fantasticoshe that giving birth without anaesthetics “didn’t hurt in the slightest”.

The 29-year-old star explained, “I didn’t want to be drugged up. So I did a lot of preparation, I did yoga and meditation, so I managed to have a very tranquil birth at home.” She said, “The whole time my mind was focused in each contraction on the thought ‘my baby is closer to coming out”.

Bundchen added, “It wasn’t like ‘this is so painful’. So I transformed that intense feeling into a hope of seeing him.’”.

On December 8, 2009, Bundchen and husband Tom Brady welcomed a baby boy in Boston, but they had trouble choosing a name. Later that month they announced that their new son’s name is Benjamin.
