Little Nola weighed in at six pounds, 14 ounces and Charmaine told her followers that during delivery she had an image of her mom holding her baby.

“Hearts are full 💜 #NolaGlendaBey was born yesterday at 4:41 ! 6lbs 14 oz and 19.5 inches! When I was pushing her out I had an image of my mom holding her and it was the most beautiful experience ever.”
