Kourtney Kardashian feels "so blessed" after giving birth to her first baby with her husband Travis Barker.

The 44-year-old Poosh founder gave birth to her son earlier this week, after arriving at Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre on Monday. It comes after she underwent "terrifying" foetal surgery during her pregnancy to save her unborn baby's life.

A source has revealed Kourtney is loving being a new mum again and said her husband has been "amazing". They explained: "Kourtney is over the moon about her son's arrival. Her pregnancy took a stressful turn towards the end. She is happy to just be able to snuggle her baby boy now. She feels so blessed."

And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this."

Speaking to People, the source said Travis has been bringing Kourtney her "favourite, healthy food" as she remains in the hospital following the birth. They added: "He makes sure she has everything that she needs. He is obsessed with their baby boy."

The pair are yet to officially reveal a name, however, Travis recently hinted that they've settled on the moniker "Rocky" for their baby. During an appearance on Monday's episode of One Life One Chance with Toby Morse, Travis explained how he was unable to attend a benefit concert in Hawaii because it fell on "the week that Rocky's due."

When asked by the host if he was referring to "Rocky 13 Barker", the name Travis has mentioned on a number of occasions, he confirmed the name. The rock star joked: "He's gonna come out of my wife's vagina, like, doing front kicks and push-ups."

Travis has previously opened up about the meaning behind his son's name. During an episode of Complex's GOAT Talk, he sat down with his daughter Alabama and explained: "Rocky George played guitar for Suicidal Tendencies. And 13 is just the greatest number of all time." Travis added: "And Rocky [is] the greatest boxing movie of all time."

As well as Alabama, Travis shares son Landon, 20, with his ex Shanna Moakler. Meanwhile, Kourtney also has three kids from her previous relationship with Scott Disick; Mason, 13, Penelope, 10, and Reign, eight.
