Skater Nancy Kerrigan welcomes a daughter
Olympic skater Nancy Kerrigan and her husband Jerry Solomon are the proud parents of a baby girl, reports People.com.
The baby girl, who has not been named, was born in Winchester, Mass. weighing 6 lbs., 12 oz. and was delivered via c-section. The little tot is the third child, but first girl, for the couple who are parents to 11-year-old Matthew and 3-year-old Brian.
How did the brothers feel about adding a sister to the mix? “They’re very excited,” Kerrigan says. “Matthew wanted a girl and Brian wanted a boy, and the two would occasionally argue about it, but they’re both looking forward to having a new sibling.”
Kerrigan, 38, must watch her diet during her pregnancies. She gained only 25 pounds with her baby girl, which is more than the 24 pounds she gained with Brian and the 23 pounds she gained with Matthew.
As far as naming her baby girl, Kerrigan says, “I think that is the hardest job, to pick a name for somebody. We are not very good at that.”
“Brian thinks Pooper would be good,” she jokes.
