Sources at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles confirm to Us that Gwen Stefani gave birth to a baby boy shortly before 1 p.m. on Friday.

After the C-section delivery, Stefani’s husband, Gavin Rossdale, and Stefani’s father walked out of the operating room and greeted family waiting in a private room. Rossdale announced that the baby had been born and the entire room started screaming and clapping. Sources say the rocker parents are considering calling their son (who was born with a thick thatch of hair) Kingston, or “King” for short.

The couple arrived at Cedars-Sinai this morning, where Rossdale dropped his wife off at the maternity ward, parked Stefani’s silver Range Rover and “seemed a little nervous and checked the baby car seat before he got out,” according to a witness. Rossdale then took the elevator to the maternity ward. “Gwen was wearing her signature red lipstick and looked so excited,” the onlooker added.

Stefani, 36, announced her pregnancy last December during the final concert stop of her band No Doubt. “This is the end of a huge chapter for me,” she said at the time. Her tour completed, the singer spent the remainder of her pregnancy relaxing, swimming, and getting weekly manicures and pedicures near her Los Feliz home in Los Angeles, California.

The couple met in 1995 when No Doubt opened for Rossdale’s former band Bush, and they married in September 2002, in two separate ceremonies in London and Los Angeles. Rossdale, 38, has a 16-year old daughter, Daisy Lowe from a previous relationship…sounds like a built-in babysitter to us. Congratulations!
