Brantley Gilbert Talks About Newborn Son [VIDEO]

Country music single Brantley Gilbert and his wife Amber welcomed their newborn son, Barrett Hardy-Clay, into the world on 11/11/2017. The adorable little boy couldn’t be more loved by his parents and the country music community at large. Like most new parents, the Brantleys are in awe of the fact that they made a little human.

“Honestly, I’m just speechless. Watching the delivery, I don’t even know what to say. Amber and I are just so thankful and blessed to have this beautiful little boy. It was really fast. Amber woke up, had a little pain. And the nurse said, ‘You’re ready.’ It was 30 minutes, and we had Barrett. And I have no words, beyond it’s even more than I could’ve ever imagined.” Gilbert said.

Little Barrett was born in Athens, Georgia, weighing in at 6 lbs., 7 oz. and measuring 20 inches in length.

Gilbert took to Facebook Live recently to update his fans on his little family. In the video you can see the lack of sleep typical for parents of a newborn showing on Gilbert’s face.

“We just had a beautiful little boy on the eleventh, so we haven’t been far from the house,” Brantley said in the Facebook Live video. “I was on dad duty for a little this morning. I would show you the baby, he’s right in there, but we just got him laid down so he’s sleeping good, either that or he’s feeding and I ain’t fixing to show you all no boob. Sorry, but that’s my wife.”

“That little man, I’m telling you, it’s everything everybody said it would be and more. He’s like a million answered prayers traded in for sleep. But he’s been awesome. I never smiled so big in my life and he can’t even smile yet. He’s got me wrapped around his little finger.”

The “Bottoms Up” singer went on to talk about the type of daddy skills he has been displaying lately.

“A lot of you are asking questions about sleep and as you can tell I’m looking real wretched. This little man hasn’t figured out his sleep schedule yet. So we haven’t figured out ours,” added Brantley. “I can tell you I have the most wonderful wife in the world. She has woken up with him every time. I try to do what I can but she’s got it under wraps. Yes fellas I am changing diapers. I’ve changed quite a few actually. I usually take the night shift and that seems to be a pretty active time for his stuff. So yeah, I’ve changed quite a few.”
