Did rebecca zamolo have her baby yet

Rebecca Zamolo's little girl has arrived!

The YouTuber, 37, welcomed her first baby, a daughter named Zadie Hope Zamolo, with husband Matt Slays, on Wednesday, Feb. 23, she announced with a birth video on YouTube.`

Baby Zadie (who already has her own Instagram!) was born in Los Angeles, weighing 6 lbs., 11 oz. and measuring 20 inches at birth.

"We finally have our rainbow baby, and we could not be happier! It has been a long journey and we are so thankful for our family, friends, fans and doctors for their love and support along the way," the couple, whose book The Game Master: Mansion Mystery hit shelves earlier this month, tells PEOPLE exclusively.

Adds Zamalo, "Being a mother has always been a dream for me. Zadie is our world and a dream come true."

As for how the mom of one chose her daughter's moniker, Zamolo says, "I love the letter Z and the name Sadie, so combining the two just made sense."

The happy news comes after she revealed back in February 2021 that she had suffered a miscarriage at 9 weeks. Months later, in August, she announced her pregnancy after a taxing IVF process, surgery, and her third implantation.

"A rainbow baby is a baby born to parents following a miscarriage because it's like a rainbow after a storm. We are overjoyed to finally be able to say that our rainbow baby is on the way," Zamolo and Slays, who wed in May 2014, told PEOPLE exclusively at the time.

"It's been a long journey filled with a rollercoaster of emotions, but it all feels worth it now," the couple added. "We can't wait to meet our little rainbow bundle of joy. We are forever indebted to our family, friends, fans and doctors for their unwavering love and support during this journey. Thank you all."

In November, Zamolo announced she was expecting a baby girl alongside photos from her gender reveal on Instagram.

"IT'S A GIRL!! 😭…It still doesn't feel real 💕," she wrote. "For those who don't know, with my IVF journey we had already tried 3 girl eggs and this was our last one. We decided to put our final girl egg in along with a boy even though we knew the chances of having a girl were slim."

"I am so emotional right now even trying to type this… I have no words, we are just so happy," she added.

YouTube star Rebecca Zamolo finally got her rainbow baby.

The star of The Game Master network has given birth to her and husband Matt Slays' first child, a daughter named Zadie Hope, following a lengthy infertility battle, during which she suffered two pregnancy losses. She announced the news in a YouTube video, posted March 12, showing her undergoing a C-section and then meeting her baby girl.

Later in the video, Rebecca is seen showing Zadie her nursery and telling her, "We have all of these rainbows because you are our rainbow baby."

Last June, the YouTube star announced on Instagram that she was pregnant following a third round of IVF. She had sought fertility treatments about more than two years ago, after doctors told her it would be more challenging for her to conceive naturally due to having her colon removed in 2014 as a treatment for ulcerative colitis.

She became pregnant through IVF months after she suffered a missed miscarriage when she was nine weeks along and documented the devastating moment she found out she had lost her pregnancy on YouTube. It marked her second loss—her first round of IVF ended in a chemical pregnancy, or early miscarriage.

"There's so many times where you try to control everything, but in the end of the day, I think things work out the way they're supposed to," Rebecca told E! News in May. "I believe everything works for you, not against you, even though sometimes it doesn't feel that way. I guess that's what gives me hope, like, it wasn't meant to be."

After undergoing her third IVF round, Rebecca underwent a hysteroscopy to have polyps removed from her uterus, to boost her chances of conceiving again. She later had both a female and male embryo implanted, resulting in her pregnancy with baby Zadie.

"it was a long path and sometimes it felt like this day would never come," Rebecca said in her new video. "But I'm so glad we kept going on and believing that this would happen because gosh, now that she's here, I can honestly say this was all worth it and we are so happy. So happy with Zadie Hope. You're the best thing that's ever happened to us."
