Leave it to Kaidence Donda West (if that’s really the name of Kim Kardashian’s baby) to make a dramatic entrance and throw the PR machine off guard!

While the rumored baby name – a tribute to Kanye West’s late mother – is not official, of this there is no doubt: It was a dramatic, unexpected delivery!

People’s cover story looks chronicles “the emotional, harrowing night” Kim Kardashian and her beau spent at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A.

Admitted June 14 due to medical complications, Kim Kardashian gave birth about 35-37 weeks into her pregnancy (depending on who you believe).

Kanye West, meanwhile, rushed to her side.

 

By the next day, Kim had given birth to a girl, “the prettiest, tiniest thing with a full head of straight, dark hair, a cute little nose and Kim’s lips,” says a source.

“She’s already smiling!”

The little one has been spending her first days in an incubator to regulate her body temperature, but this is standard treatment for premature babies.

Baby K, whose parents have decided on a name (though they have not confirmed the rumored one), is “doing very well,” says a hospital source.

As for Kimye, who’d been dogged by rumors about their relationship (talking to you, Leyla Ghobadi) in recent months, the new parents are “over the moon.”

With a beautiful child like this, how could they not be?

Just kidding. That’s not really her, THGers.

Congratulations again, Kim and Kanye, on the birth of your beautiful baby girl, whose photo we can’t wait to see as soon as you receive the highest bid!
