Two months after giving birth to her son Benjamin the supermodel, who had a home birth in a bathtub says giving birth “didn’t hurt in the slightest.”

The model gave birth in her home in Boston with her husband Tom Brady, her mom, and a midwife by her side. “My delivery was in a bath tub, in water,” said the 29-year-old. “I wanted to have a home birth. I wanted to be very aware and present during the birth… I didn’t want to be drugged up.”

Gisele added, “So I did a lot of preparation, I did yoga and meditation, so I managed to have a very tranquil birth at home.”

While speaking to the Brazilian TV channel Fantasticoshe she remarked, “It didn’t hurt in the slightest. The whole time my mind was focused in each contraction on the thought ‘my baby is closer to coming out. It wasn’t like ‘this is so painful. So I transformed that intense feeling into a hope of seeing him.”

When it comes to being a mother, she says, “It’s wonderful. You hear people talking about it, but you don’t know until it happens to you. I couldn’t be happier.”

Benjamin is Gisele’s first child with her husband Tom Brady. Tom has a 2 year old son with his ex Bridget Moynahan.
