"Ahhh! He's here!! Our little man, Sonny John Ray, was born [Saturday] at 7:08 p.m. at a whopping 9lbs 9oz and 22 inches!" White told ET. "He's alert and amazing. We couldn't be more obsessed with our butterball! Can't wait for him to meet his big sister. So grateful!"

White, who competed on the seventh season of the singing competition, announced her pregnancy on Instagram in February. She posted a picture of her son's sonogram and talked about the challenges that come with getting pregnant via IVF.

"Meet our handsome little dude, due Sept. 2nd!," she captioned the picture. "It's hard to believe it's even real... Cause, WHEW, It's been a process. infertility is hard. IVF is downright crazy, I've been a hormonal mess for several months, but it's totally worth it, because it finally worked."

Meet our handsome little dude, due Sept. 2nd! It's hard to believe it's even real... Cause, WHEW, It's been a process. infertility is hard. IVF is downright crazy, I've been a hormonal mess for several months, but it's totally worth it, because it finally worked. Hallelujah! Yes! We are so happy, we are so thankful. Yes, I have a million thoughts and feelings about this journey, cause my heart is humbled and very tender for this struggle and the many women I've come to know through it. I wrote them down but Dave said they were a little heavy for an announcement, and he's probably right. soon I will share. But, I have to say, right now, THANK YOU, for all of your prayers, for your good vibes, for your hope, your perspective, your stories, and your support. You've helped me more than you know. I love you, and I just want to do the same for others. 12 weeks down, 28 to go.💙💙💙
