Russian-born singer Yulia says meeting her baby son Leon Aleksandr MacLean for the first time was an emotional experience.
"I heard him cooing when he came out. He was very peaceful. He was making lovely sounds. I started to cry."
Leon was delivered by Caesarean section at North Shore Hospital
on Thursday, weighing 2.4kg.
Yulia, 25, who married her manager Glyn MacLean in 2008, was "thrilled" to be a mum, and was already an ambassador for Parents Centres New Zealand.
Her next big project is as one of the headline artists on a US TV special to mark the 80th anniversary of London's Abby Road recording studios.
