After two weeks of waiting, fit mom Emily Breeze Ross gave birth to her first child, son Bly Rhunar Watson. “Today we fell deep in love with our first born child,” Ross wrote on Instagram. “There are so many emotions I don’t know where to begin. Welcome to the world.” Breeze wowed her followers by continuing to lift over 100 lbs. right up to her due date – and after. She even fit in a tough workout running stairs and hills two days before she was induced, on Sunday. “Happy Friday y’all – doing my favs (hills and stairs) one last time before the workout of my life this weekend,” Ross captioned a video of her workout. While she faced plenty of critics who said she was harming her baby by continuing to do workouts with heavy weights and jumping, the two-time CrossFit Games competitor assured her followers that she has the approval of her doctors.

I am amazed by a woman’s body and equally thankful that I’ve been able to stay active and do what I love all the way through til the end.” Congratulations to Ross and her husband!
