Maren Morris and Ryan Hurd have been parents for a little over a month now after welcoming their first child, Hayes, on March 23. This week, Morris decided it was time for her and Hayes to venture outside to enjoy some sunshine amid the coronavirus pandemic.
On Tuesday (April 27), Morris shared a sweet photo of herself wearing a hat and sunglasses with her baby boy sleeping on her chest in a leopard print sling. "We finally went outside!" she captioned the photo along with a sunflower emoji.
Last month, Morris revealed that she endured 30 hours of labor but needed to have an emergency C-section as well. She also took a moment to thank the healthcare workers who helped her deliver during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“30 hours of labor ended with an emergency c-section... not what we planned but I learned pretty quickly that night that having a plan for bringing a human into the world is a fool’s errand. All that mattered was that he got here safely,” she wrote in her note.
She continued on to explain how strange it was to give birth in the middle of a global health crisis. "Holding him and healing my body in a maternity ward that's eerily quiet from us not being allowed visitors or family at this time, but strangely serene."
To end her note, Morris thanked mothers all over the world for their strength during childbirth. "I can’t thank every single mother enough for going through what you’ve gone through because I had NO idea how hard it could be, and I’m a measly 4 days in. The world is changing before our eyes and so am I."
