"No symptoms, didn't gain weight, didn't gain weight in the stomach, nothing," Ellison said. "My mamma said she thinks I was carrying the baby in my hips."
Ellison already has a 15-year-old daughter whom she also gave birth to at Greater Roseland. She named her new bundle of joy Naveah Faith.
The newborn weighed 5 pounds and 8 ounces, and is doing great.
