Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has given birth to a healthy baby girl.

In a statement this morning, a spokesperson for the City of Boston said, “Yesterday at 2pm, Mayor Wu and her husband Conor welcomed Baby Mira Wu Pewarski—arriving at 8lbs, 4oz and 20 inches—to their family and to Boston. Mom and baby are in good health, and the Mayor is in touch with her senior staff.”

The timing of the joyful moment comes as the mayor herself celebrates her birthday today.

“We are so blessed to have welcomed Baby Mira into our family and into the world yesterday,” The mayor said in a statement from her campaign operation. “Just in time for Michelle’s birthday today!

The City Hall statement continued, “Mayor Wu wishes to express her deepest gratitude to the nurses, doctors, and healthcare staff who made this possible for her family and who work everyday to support so many families across the city.”

Wu’s office did circulate a schedule for today. There were no public events listed.
