Earlier today, Jay-Z unveiled his heartwarming song for his newborn daughter Blue Ivy Carter, and now both Jay and new momma Beyonce have released a joint statement regarding the birth of their baby girl. See what the new parents had to say about the “emotional and extremely peaceful” delivery below!

Hello Hello Baby Blue!

We are happy to announce the arrival of our beautiful daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, born on Saturday, January 7, 2012.

Her birth was emotional and extremely peaceful, we are in heaven.

She was delivered naturally at a healthy 7 lbs and it was the best experience of both of our lives.

We are thankful to everyone for all your prayers, well wishes, love and support.

– Beyoncé & JAY Z

Does “delivered naturally” mean Beyonce didn’t have an epidural? If so, she’s more fierce than we ever imagined.

Beyonce’s 4 is out now on Parkwood/Columbia. Purchase it on eMusic.
