Miesha Tate Gives Birth To Daughter
After 67 hours of labor, Miesha Tate is now a mother.
On Sunday evening, Tate’s partner and fighter Johnny Nunes took to Instagram to introduce their daughter Amaia to the world.
A former UFC bantamweight champion, Tate would announce her pregnancy back in January, over a year after her retirement fight, a loss to Raquel Pennington.
Tate would follow up her partner’s statement with more photos and her experience over 67 hours.
“It’s difficult for me to put words to what I’m feeling. I had the fight of my life bringing my daughter into this world. I labored for 60 hours at home and made such little progress dilating that I had to be transported to the hospital. It was 62 hours before I had any relief from the pain, shaking & puking. And 72 hours total until I birthed our little Amaia. It wasn’t the way I wanted it but sometimes you have to switch the game-plan, I still feel like I won because she’s safe and so perfect. I can’t thank my support team enough for pulling the long hours with me. We did it! 6/3/2018 Happy Birthday Amaia! I can’t wait to give you everything I have to offer, I’ll start with my whole heart”
