‘Jesus take the wheel’ hit singer Carrie Underwood has announced that she and her husband are proud parents of a bouncing baby boy, whose birth they describe as a “miracle.”
As UG Christian News reported earlier, Carrie suffered three miscarriages over three years, and during an exclusive interview with media in September 2018 broke down saying, “I asked God why He kept allowing me to get pregnant only to lose the baby. “
The ecstatic country singer welcomed her baby with husband Mike Fisher last Tuesday, posting the happy announcement to her social media.
“His mom, dad and big brother couldn’t be happier for God to trust them with taking care of this little miracle! Our hearts are full, our eyes are tired and our lives are forever changed. Life is good…” Underwood posted on Instagram.
Fisher took to his own social media page with a heartfelt message to his new “miracle baby.”
“You are a gift from our Lord! The last few years has had its challenges and it makes this moment even more sweet! We didn’t know if Izzy would ever have another sibling but we learned through it all that God is in control and His timing is perfect! He is good all the time even in the difficult times that are hard to understand. #grateful#miraclebaby,” the former professional ice hockey player testified.
“I was like, ‘Why on Earth do I keep getting pregnant if I can’t have a kid? Like, what is this? Shut the door. Like, do something. Either shut the door or let me have a kid,’” Underwood recalled feeling at the time she suffered those losses.
“And for the first time, I feel like I actually told God how I felt. I feel like we’re supposed to do that,” she added that time.
Just days before her pregnancy announcement last year, the “Cry Pretty” singer was criticized by some online for saying that she might’ve missed the opportunity to have a large family because of her age.
“I’m 35, so we may have missed our chance to have a big family,” Underwood told Redbook magazine last year. “We always talk about adoption and about doing it when our child or children are a little older.”
Underwood and Fisher have been married for eight years and have a 3-year-old son named Isaiah.
